We made it to our whistle stop. Another grand adventure underway with the mission of four women to use the VIA Canada Railway to access backcountry skiing across northern British Columbia. Bags are tossed to the side of the tracks, with no sign of the friend-of-a-friend with whom we have had little communication. We hope we're in the right place. As the train pulls away we are warned to be wary of cougars, or mountain lions, or whatever large predatory cats may be living in "the bush" up here in Northern BC. The manager from the train points to Leah's whistle. In a non-chalant way, she advises to just blow that whistle if any large cats come our way. A threat we weren't entirely sure what to make of. Did she really just say that? Are we really watching this train pull away and leave us in the middle of nowhere? We sure are. And sometimes you just have to laugh at all of that.
VIA Rail Train Trip through Northern, BC, Canada with Leah Evans, Molly Baker, and Brigid Mander. I'm heading out to San Francisco for the Pretty Face premier (thank you very much SkyMiles for the help!) and I'm overjoyed to share the excitement and give support for an amazing film and an amazing group of women skiers (and amazing women in general!). If you are in the area, you have no excuse not to attend!
Here's a few snippets from the SLC premier (which sold out... twice!) I would like to welcome myself to the modern age. Welcome! Welcome! Excited to share a new website with a few updated photos (more on the way!) and a much more mobile friendly design. Cheers!
Yesterday's Clik Elite Immortal retreat was a meeting of some GREAT photo-nerd-minds to geek out on some prototypes and production updates. Thanks to Clik Elite for hosting and taking our feedback. I love that our group of Elite Immortals all have similar pursuits in some ways, but drastically different in others, and various backgrounds to draw wisdom from. It was great to see some familiar Utah photographer faces, and a pleasure to meet some new ones. Clik Elite continues to create the best packs for outdoor and adventure photographers and I'm really excited (read: anxiously awaiting and counting the days) for the newest pack in the line-up. The Contrejour will probably remain my personal daily driver, especially for skiing in the winter, but I expect to use this new one a TON.
