You can see the distinct snowline above the misty clouds sitting at Cleveland Reservoir, Capilano Canyon, North Vancouver.

Local Pow
The cold snap enveloping most of Western Canada has some great benefits for those of us who ride and ski the local Vancouver mountains.
Much needed snow has dumped on Mt. Seymour, Grouse Mountain, and Cypress Mountain providing the best conditions we’ve had since early in the season. (I still ride Cypress by choice, but Grouse clearly has the best website, and my kids prefer it).
Oldest son and I spent some quality time together on Cypress earlier this week where I discovered that dad can’t quite keep up with a lanky 17 year old.
We had one interesting ‘media’ moment – waiting in line for the lift, just looking around, I spotted at least 5 GoPro cameras mounted on helmets. I had mine mounted to the front of my board, but was also shooting with a Drift HD hand-held – the photo above is a still from that footage.
If you’re in Canada and are looking for one, check out Launch Helmet Cams based in North Vancouver – they’ll get it out to you quick, have great prices, and superb after sales service.
Christmas Eve on the Sea Wall
Right on cue (the weatherman’s cue) the rain let up and the sun came out to light up English Bay on Christmas Eve.
EB and I took an hour out for a lovely walk on the West Vancouver sea wall.
Late December Sailing
It’s a real treat to be able to jump on the boat and go for an afternoon sail in late December. The wind was a bit elusive but we still managed to spend the afternoon sailing Howe Sound.
Snow That Dreams Are Made Of
I got to work with Nate Smith when we were up in Rankin Inlet doing a workshop. He’s the creative director at TheVacuum in Nelson.
He shot this number called Five Full Runs. Man do I hate him.
