Fire

Northern Alberta is very dry and on fire.. I spent the last couple weeks getting humbled by this beast.

Weekend Warriors

Saturday... some sun, tons of cloud.. 100 percent chance of awesome!

Old spiney showed her face for a couple minutes

Looking in.  

Soucy and the boys scoping... It crapped out pretty hard, so we called it a early day.
The word on the street is Eric and Dan had a good morning in this zone, today.

Day 2 - This cornitichiwa is having a fight with gravity... seems to be winning

Chris Ankeny shredding the dog

More dogging

And then again with the merk bird

The snowstorm on the glacier, chased us away... Luckily it was sunny back at the trucks.

Dave Basterrechea AKA flat light magnet.  Dave is ready for Blue.

Alot of times with Blue you get a northerly bitchslap

More Bitchslapping

DB punching a face in the face

DB post board breaking entrance

DB Perfect wave.  It felt like it wanted to let loose, but never did.

Delaney Zayac

I am assuming this was the best part of Delaney's day, because it turned gongy not long after this.
I am stoked you made it home, bud!

MSP was in the area

mellow camera man tow in

James Heim, getting ready to drop in... The MSP crew was super cool, and let us have some lines we had been scoping,  the first day.  They had a serious advantage over us, having a heli.  Day 2  we were looking at the same terrain again, it was their turn to go first.

James Heim shredded the crap out of this face, and came hammering out the debris field at the bottom, going mach and holding on.. Super impressive.  It will be cool to see on film.

DB and I shredded the spine

I am pretty sure dave had a good Bday

One of the nicest lines around.

Round 2

   We knew that the window was going to be short, but we went for it anyways.

Dave B, party barge captain

hmm

yah

yip

old dirty

DB  vertsing up.

this was fun

It crapped out fast... I radioed the boys shortly after this to say, that the line would not be too sweet to shred in flat light, a minute later, i called on the radio again to say, we got to go now!..
Lucklily we were able to retrace our steps in the whiteout.

Ankeny- Redneck superstar

Dave B - Snowwater

Whiskey Tahoe Bro,  Dave Basterrechea shredded Snowwater Heli  with Dave Short, this winter.  Here is some video action from the trip
