Last day of Ski Touring 1 - Dropped off by a Heli

Second group on the way up

Steve shredding the first line

So after the morning mayhem of getting to ze chopper the real fun began. Our group was the last to get to the drop zone in the backcountry. As we were arriving the first group was already at the top of a ridge and the second group was almost to the top. Just as we were getting ready to skin up the first group started riding down. It is pretty awesome to see your buddies shredding fresh lines in untouched bowls as you are hiking up to the same line. Once we got to the top of the first ridge we rode down, loved the line so much that we hiked back up and rode it again on the other side. After touring around in the backcountry for most of the day we skinned up one last time to our exit, the Mt. Fernie ridge. After waiting for what seemed like hours for jock to get his skins put away we rode one of the avalanche chutes down Mt Fernie all the way to our vans.
