The conditions in the back country of Whistler have been great the past
few days. I have a sweet sun burn and have been shredding tons of
pow. I have been going up snowmobiling with Kale Stephens, Nick
Gregory, and Jake Koia as well as we have been shooting photos with
Brad Heppner and Scott Serfas and filming with Morgan Rice. We wake
up at about 5:45 in the morning and finish around 7:00 when the sun
goes down. Yesterday we were scoping out a spot to build a jump and I
rode over a roll next to the zone to check out the landing. As i was
riding down on my snowmobile i saw a bunch of snow billowing up in
front of me like a small wave and i realized i was in the middle of an
avalanche! Right after i realized i was in the avalanche i felt it
pulling me and my machine to the side so i instantly pinned the
throttle and ripped over the rubble building up in front of me and
raced away from it. Luckily no one was hurt and the avalanche did not
travel far...
