Our -20 degree day!
Ooops forgot to publish earlier 😊

So we were very lucky to spend time with family at Whistler, the Smith family that is. Massive thank you to Danni and Mitch for having us stay with them whilst we were there and making our trip wonderful.

Despite being in Whistler for one of the coldest dates of the season with the weather being minus 21 plus wind chill we managed to hit the slopes. We got in three days on the snow which was a great way to end our snow season in Canada and being with Mitch and Danni made it even better.

Kari hit the beginners terraine parks and each day her jumps got higher & higher and she also went along blocks and became a tree run enthusiast.

Whilst Chris hit the largest terrain parks ever doing jumps blocks and other crazy tricks - unfortunately Kari's video skills do not do it justice!

On our final day on our final run visibility became impossible we couldn't see more than 1 metre in front of us - rather dangerous when you are going downhill! It was nerve racking, eerie and exciting!



Thanks
