A recent 9 day ski traverse from The Bugaboos to Rogers Pass, BC, Canada

in #travel6 years ago

Here's a few photos from a recent ski trip I did with 5 friends. We started by getting dropped by Helicopter near the Bugaboo Spires. 130km, 10,000 meters climbing and 9 days later we finished at Rogers Pass, BC, Canada.

Beautiful photos :)

Amazing photos, what an incredible 9 days! Must have been super challenging, but so rewarding:) I just posted about my ski season in NZ a few years back where I climbed up to the top and skies down the back face, had the whole mountain to myself and 2 mates! Was amazing! Skiing is awesome, it brings unique memories and moments like no other:)
