Blue bird day on the Blackcomb Glacier. Blow Hole session.

This high pressure system left us with another clear day here in beautiful Whistler British Columbia. Callum, Kye, myself and photographer Bruce Rowles made our way up the Seventh Heaven access road as soon as we got up the the hill.

Black Tusk in the distance.

Seventh Heaven Chair. Callum and Kye hoofing it.

Almost there.

Green Lake from the our rest point.

Self portrait from the summit. Time for the oatmeal bar and water break.

 We scoped our first shot from the ridge up from the Horstman Hut. Callum and I ski’d the Stupids and continued to traverse to the top of the Showcase T Bar. From there we had a short boot pack to the top of the ridge where we dropped in for our first fresh tracks of the day.

Callum up top. This is what we worked for, yeah bud.

The view into the Blackcomb Glacier from the top of the Showcase T Bar.

Here’s a look back at our traverse track. Check out how rad the line in the sun to the left is! That’s going to get hit. Look a little closer and you can see the crevasses in the ski out.

I got Callum to snap a shot of me before he dropped in. Thanks bro, nice turns!

Here’s the KPDC checking out his line.

Here’s the spine jump we hit in the Blowhole. Had a few good turns, a straight air and a flat spin 450 before skiing the road out. Check back to see Bruce’s action shots.

Top of the T Bar. Check out Callum, Kye and I in the shadows. Thought this was an interesting shot. There was some great light today but we’ll definately have to show up a bit earlier next time to take full advantage of it.

Here’s a snap shot of the full moon from the grocery store parking lot in Nesters before our trek home to Pemberton for the evening. Now it’s time to rinse/dry/repeat. Rinse of the sweat, dry out our ski boots and repeat it all again tomorrow morning! Bless.
