After Big White, we jumped into the truck and headed to Revelstoke. By sheer luck while riding the mountain, we ran into a couple of friends who knew all the best zones. They showed us around and were a HUGE help for us. After riding one day, we headed to The Cabin in town and did some bowling, and drinking of course. The next day we woke up and went on a bit of a hike for some shots. We then climbed into the car again and headed to the little town of Ymir near Nelson. Ymir is a great little town filled with great people and if you ever have the chance to stop by, we suggest you do that.
Had to represent everywhere we went
"You have to shoot beer cans at a bonfire"
The Echanted Forest, or something. A creepy kids zone en route to Revelstoke
Lots of luggage

Leo was almost always behind the lense
You can still get to a chairlift from the end of the ridge
We rode all the way down to the road. Dario hitchhiked back to get the truck
Pooped.
The next day we headed back to Van and the trip was over. It went really good and hopefully you will all check it out in next season's Travel Issue of Snowboard Canada.
