Hitting rock bottom of river bed At Whistler


This last Feb we were in Whistler riding on the Whistler side. We had a Local guide us
His name Is Trevor Chelswick owner and operator of Whistler Vacations. We went down a river bed that was covered in snow. There are no pictures I thought I forgot the camera only to find it at the end of the day in my inside pocket.

Back to the story My brother in law Ronnie was riding behind me on this roller coaster
river bed I stop to wait for Ronnie. no sign now I get shaken. I had to worry about Ronnie and also find Trevor. Finally Ronnie and Joe come down Joe had to pull Ronnie out of a 5ft hole the left Ronnie on the river bed floor.

I look down and to the left a there's Trevor waiting right there to lead us out a great time was had by all of us that day. Sadly the girls missed it they where riding the slopes.

P.S and even sadder then that Keith and Tony stayed in the condo that day sorry boys.

yo that river bed is sick. i also went to whistler this year for the first time. ive been snowboarding for the last six years and when i went to whistler we were riding down the bagel bowl (sick steeps) when one of my boys decides to take a short cut through the trees to hit highway 88 (i think that is the name of the furthest trail on whistler) when all of a sudden we see this 7 foot drop to a river bed. we jumped in and took a look at the map and saw that it was a river frozen over. so we said screw it lets ride, it was almost like surfing on a half pipe. except their was holes like you said and fallen trees that you had to ride under. we rode that river bed for like 2 hours it was the most beautiful exciting thing that i have done since riding the back side of the summit at mount bachelor in oragon(best kept secret in north america). but in the end we had to climb out and almost missed the last trail in whistler. but whistler is the shit and i cant wait to go back and go heli boarding. i saw your picks and they are narly.

catch you in 360 land, bring tissues
