No, not Farnham Glacier, but the mountain, the tallest mountain in the Purcell mountains. As the Purcells are kind of my home range with Kicking Horse located within, it’s a little bit extra personal. Load up the packs, load up the truck, drive to Radium and then … Continue reading Mount Farnham

I think I saw it from the Dogtooth Range in late season-July a few years back, and its north face looked like it should be a perfect steep canvas of white in winter. Of course, that isn’t the case, it’s a traffic jam of seracs trying … Continue reading Beaver Glacier Camp

A pretty small peak of 2700m and change, but somehow maintains a rather large glacier. And two steep rad ice faces on the N and NE flanks. On the drive in, we were treated to a rather spectacular sunrise to the south: After the truck took us up the grueling, steep … Continue reading Destroyer of Worlds

A long, brutal bushwhack to a south facing gulley on a peak that doesn’t have a lot of name cred and then all the way back out. Sure to break a friendship. So it was another solo trip for me. I woke up at … Continue reading The Friendship-breaker

Foster Peak took all the weather windows I had for the month. I wanted one more gnarly line to finish off the spring before firn snow skipping for the rest of the summer. The West Face of Foster beckoned and I was powerless to resist. At 3200m … Continue reading Still Got The Touch

Most likely a first descent. I first noticed this while lounging about at the top of 3/3.5 couloir (commonly called 3/4) at Moraine Lake last year, waiting for the snow to soften up for descent. I … Continue reading Tumbling Mountain

This minor obsession with Mt Weed’s south face/ chutes started around Christmas this year. I was heading home and needed to get a gift for my parents, so I figured why not get something that might help them further understand my fascination with mountains. I can’t really take pictures … Continue reading Mt. Weed

Mt. Niles solo summit https://perpetualski.ca/2014/04/mt-niles-solo-summit/ https://perpetualski.ca/2014/04/mt-niles-solo-summit/#comments Thu, 24 Apr 2014 23:26:00 +0000 http://perpetualski.ca/mt-niles-solo-summit/ This mountain had never really registered on my radar until I went to ski Sherbrooke lake. It’s just a really cool looking mountain with a wicked looking south face. Not gnarly, just really sweet looking. So since I’m recently parted with my fat freeride-oriented touring setup and just on my 90mm spring setup, I thought … Continue reading Mt. Niles solo summit

I headed up in late May to see what I could see, but the views were fleeting and inconclusive. It was also obvious it was past season for it too. Over the summer I found … Continue reading Boom Boom

Steep uptracks, cornice tunneling bootpacks, ski traversing a face to get on the line and then by far, the most full-on skiing I’ve ever done. This is what we saw after we ascended Fortitude Ridge. … Continue reading Fortitude Big Lines
