Goodbye to Friends

James Morland •

In the past weeks the ski community and in particular those living in Chamonix, have said goodbye to some dear friends and truly inspirational characters. It is with great sadness that we bid farewell to Liz Daley who lost her life in an avalanche in Chile and to Andreas Franson and JP Auclair who also lost their lives in a seperate incident on the Chilean-Argentinean border. You will be missed by many.

This is not your regular Canadian heli-skiing. This is big wild northern British Columbia and compared to southern BC with all of its heli-ski operations sandwiched together; it’s like a different country.

The Kuril Islands & Kamchatka

A more distant, end of the earth type place would be hard to imagine and for the past four years I had dreamed of skiing these gigantic volcanoes that rise so abruptly from the mythical sounding, Sea of Okhotsk.
