I headed up to ski Whitewater Winter Resort located near the heritage town of Nelson, BC. Before I knew it, the sun came out and I was munching powder with locals. This mountain truly rocks! 

Whitewater Winter Resort is renowned for its epic powder, stupendous fall-line skiing and awesome scenery. This place is a must see!

I checked out the 2009 Canadian Open Freeskiing Championships at Red Mountain Resort in Rossland. Some of the best freeskiers from around the world ripped down the face of one of freeskiing's most challenging venues...Mt. Roberts!

These guys and gals went huge, dropping cliffs and entertaining us spectators. The
athletes were judged on line choice, fluidity, technique, aggression and control. Make sure you visit Red Mountain Resort next year when this event is going on and watch these guys rip!
