The Balance.

We are always trying to achieve the balance of work and play....lately the balance has been restored as skiing time is permitted, conditions are great and the stoke is high..

Patagonia DS rep, Joel Oberly setting the slope on fire, Pauls Ridge, Garibaldi. Joel was visiting from Reno and despite doing more walking then skiing, he was a pretty happy camper.

On one uncertain weather day, we traveled the Duffey lake road as you do, looking at the peaks and trying to make a decision, the forecast showed springlike snow squalls and a low ceiling/visibility..We debated but inspired by the then beautiful skies, shot up into the Alpine and ended up on Cayoosh Mtn's summit in perfect weather, finishing with a ski of its 1200m armchair glacier.
Jamie and Simon were visiting from Canmore and it was great to see these guys and get a couple of memorable days in.
