Sky Pilot Mountain, Squamish B.C.
The journey is intense but the reward is worth it.
Getting geared up, the excitement sets in. The planning, the preparation, it's all finally coming into play. You start your journey to the peak. The views getting better and better with every foot of altitude gained. A few hours pass by, you feel your leg muscles starting to burn, your breathing getting more intense.
At last! The feeling of accomplishment. While trying to take in the breathtaking views you hear a rumble...Lunch time. Our specialty, a thermos of hot chilli, or a gourmet tuna sandwich. Both equally satisfying at this time. Quenching your thirst with a local brew to top it all off.
Finally the moment you've been waiting for, time to send it. Descending so fast your floating across the untouched powder. Your hearts racing with adrenaline. You're one with the mountain. Carving in complete solitude.
