  • After leaving Revy, chasing a storm down to Nelson and Whitewater, we made our last stop in Rossland, furthest southern resort before you hit the border. Red Mountain is unlike any other mountain I've ever ridden.

  • After a few nights in Revy, we reluctantly left during a snowstorm and spent the better part of a day driving south to Whitewater Resort outside of Nelson. In that time, and then overnight, more than 60 cms of fresh snow piled up on the mountains. It was insanity.

  • I tagged along because her friend is also married to a pretty cool guy, and it would be a total dick move to leave him alone with a 1-year old and 5 ladies for a long weekend. The "bro" thing to do would be go down there and make the most of it, and to remind him of his epic faceplant, so that's what I did.

  • Today I turn 30, which means that I am now endowed with "old man strength".

Yeah. That "old man strength".
