Was there a vetting process or did Sage luck out with a rando instagram follower who happens to be able to ski at a very high level?

Yeah, we hit that on Sunday to kill some time. Was a bit busy but worth doing. The cave is pretty rad.

Skied the Purcells today. Blue sky didn't last but it was the BC skiing experience you dream about. Full send every run, amazing snow, epic. The exit off that spine was pushing 30 ft. Have so much rad footage from today that the prospect of editing it is daunting. Nice problem to have.

Psyched for you, looks amazing.

No sympathies given about the editing tho

**soul_skier** · 03-11-2025, 07:00 PM

Glad the weather and snow are cooperating! Looking forward to seeing the whatever edit you put together and share.

**easyrdr** · 03-11-2025, 07:20 PM

Dude..........with the luck you're having I would go buy a lotto ticket. Couldn't have happened to a more deserving mag. Looking forward to the footage.

You can't get lucky forever. Might be hosed today.

**Trackhead** · 03-12-2025, 09:37 AM

Your dads shit eating grin is awesome. What a great memory you guys will have.

**plugboots** · 03-12-2025, 09:53 AM

Very nice.

**Dantheman** · 03-12-2025, 10:33 AM

Not dead yet. High elevation road check was promising. Pilots are heading out for a check and will make the final call, but they just told us to boot up!

I just spotted this on YouTube. Dunno if DTM is lurking in here or not but it is sure some fun looking terrain

It's been so rad to watch his confidence grow in this kind of terrain. He slayed those pillows.

Haven't watched but we skied a bunch of of the same zones and lines yesterday. Even got a rad one they didn't ski. Basically a granite slot canyon with 50 ft vertical walls and pillows the whole way down the gut. Forgot to take a photo before we dropped in but got it on the GoPro. There may be another episode coming....

**beaterdit** · 03-12-2025, 10:54 AM

Sick Dan, and nice moves!

Awesome that you get to do this your Dad, and he can hang, at least mostly!

**AK47bp** · 03-12-2025, 01:22 PM

Fucking awesome.

Dan is the man

I wondered when a bookend to last season's good fortune would drop.

What an addition to life's top 10

Better than the ending to Free Willy [emoji3555]

**IceBumps** · 03-12-2025, 05:07 PM

Looks like a blast and really cool to be able to share the experience with your dad.

**Dantheman** · 03-12-2025, 05:08 PM

Got three runs and the fog rolled back in and they shut it down. But, we burned Jet A and skied pow. Mostly mellow terrain but did find a sweet pillow transfer.
