Winter has finally arrived and its time to start thinking about laying down some lines. Its still early and snowpack depth leaves most concerned with pepper (although those of you in the northwest may not agree)
With that in mind we thought we would share some Will Wissman shots to get the blood flowing. Soon it will be time to leave your mark on the mountain, until then just imagine leaving a mark on these dream lines.

On the road to Interior BC
Snow is starting to fall, winter has really started around the globe. There’s no better way to get fired up for winter than deep pow. And there’s nowhere better for deep pow and early season than interior BC. Every winter storms roll in one after another. Temperatures are cold, days are short and most people are still tuning up there skis. Its the perfect time and place to get summer out of the system and remember why you worked all summer so you can play all winter.
Cody Townsend and Adam Clark spent two weeks in the Selkirks last winter with The Selkirk Wilderness experience filming with MSP for “La Nina The Bitch is Back”. It was 14 days of epic, blower, deep pow. A few moments of sun and memories that will last at least until we are out shredding again the next few weeks. There’s a million shots that go into getting a few good ones for the movie. After shooting for 14 days, sunrise until sunset, it became one of the most productive trips of the season. So here’s 14 days of powder bliss…
Cody and Adam woke up early for an epic sunrise session before the other athletes and filmers showed up. It was the perfect way to start any trip. The Selkirks are known for great powder skiing, good terrain and lots of it. Cody had 3 epic runs in the bag before anybody else was drinking there first cup of coffee at the lodge.
Some memories will stick around a lot longer than the next epic powder day. There’s always a few days that define a winter and it always boils down to a little good luck, getting out there as much as possible and making the most out of any location you are at. This morning was one of those moments.
The clouds made there way in for an afternoon of flat light skiing and scouting with cats and snowmobiles.
And than the snow gods unleashed everything they could. Cody made his way around the Selkirk tenure hitting every cliff, bump, jump and slash he could find.
You can’t hear what Cody is thinking right now, but it goes something like “f*?ck, that was some of the best skiing of my life”
Than its time to go back to the lodge, dial in the sled, enjoy tasty beverages and do it again…
Than its back to work…
Luckily its not all work, here’s Adam getting to enjoy finding the perfect spot to shoot from
After 13 days of non-stop storm the clouds cleared for an afternoon of sunny good times.
Thanks to the guides and crew at SWS and here’s to the next spot, winter, epic ski day.
