Words by: Brent Hillier Photos by: Eli Relke & Brent Hillier A long time "bucket-list" goal of mine has always been to bike and ski Mount Seymour on the same day without any outside help. I pitched the idea to Eli Relke while we were ski touring this past winter and we earmarked the trip for Spring. Thanks to the MEC Rental program, we got our hands on bike trailers, loaded them up with gear and set off.

Dawn Patrol: To go ski or bike at an unpleasantly, perhaps even unnaturally early hour. We loaded the Brento Wagon with four bros and gear and chugged our way up Mount Seymour at 6am. The plan was to ski up the resort for sunrise, and down the groomed trail. No pow, means no reason to go anywhere else; especially out of bounds.

On December 11th we set out for another mis-adventure to the Elfin Lake area.  Beauty is in the eyes of the beholder, but if you can't appreciate a 1985 4WD Tercel then their's something wrong with you. Words by: Brent Hillier Photos by: Brent Hillier & Eli Relke With first snowfall back in September it seemed like we were going to have a quick start to the 2013/14 Winter. That unfortunately, had not been the case, the first ski trip of the season was full of early season pit falls. (Bushy Kickturns, Coreshots and Broken Promises) Trip number two was was underway and we had set our sights on a much easier approach. None of us were in the mood for a repeat of our Duffy trip.  Eli Relke, Fraser Pike and myself (left to right) make our way up from the Diamond Head parking lot to Elfin Lakes.
