Over at Mountain Life: Coast Mountains we haven’t run a snowboard cover since 2012. And it’s also been a couple years since a woman has graced the cover so the time feels right for this Chad Chomlack shot of Sea to Sky legend Leanne Pelosi to grab you by the eyeballs and draw you into the “Ladies First” 2018 winter/spring issue.

 

New Cover

 

With the Coast Mountains enjoying some epic mid-winter storm cycles, local snowboarder/perennial Mountain Life contributor Taylor Godber stepped into as guest co-editor and the result is 132 pages celebrating the spirit, talents and overall radness of some of the Coast Mountains’ finest females. Enjoy.

Read it online now, or pick up a free copy at finer establishments in the Sea to Sky corridor.

 

Ladies

 

Epic Trip: Walk Hard
Would you take your mom out on a 2300km ski tour from Squamish, BC to Skagway, Alaska? How about during one of the snowiest winters in recent memory? Martina Halik did just that, and over the course of six months she and her mother Tania redefine the meaning of a Coast Mountain epic.

 

Walk Hard

 

Whitewater Activists
With many of the finest whitewater rivers in Europe under direct threat from a barely-regulated Hydro-electric industry, Canadian kayaker Carmen Kuntz throws her paddle in with a grassroots conservation group Balkan River Tours to help save these waterways through direct action, increased awareness, and good times.

Whitewater copy

 

Mountain Lifer: Ace Mackay-Smith
Imagine you’re playing charades, with Keith Richards, and you have to act out Keith Richards… Whistler icon Ace Mackay-Smith discusses what that feels like, why a broken toaster makes a good costume, how to politely converse on a chairlift, and other lessons of gleaned from a life spent Hotdogging.

 

Ace copy

University Peak
Conditions don’t always stack up on one the finest skiable faces in North America, but a few years ago they did, and Pemberton’s Lisa Korthals was there.

University Peak copy

Searching For Xwehtáal
Cutting straight up the Stawamus Chief, The Black Dyke has an incredible mythical history with local First Nations and a storied one with modern rock climbers as well. While watching Kumari Berry attempt to re-free the route, Christopher Elliot examines both.

Return to Mystery Mountain
Christina Lustenberger and Justin Sweeney lead a team of Arcteryx athletes down the path of explorers Phyllis and Don Munday for an old-school, non-motorized attempt to summit and ski Mt. Waddington.

 

Mystery

Plus: 15-year-old Naomi Prohaska summits Mt Logan, the model vs athlete debate, Microdosing, the secrets of living longer, Mrytle Phillip, Lan Yao, surf, turf and the #realwildkittens. Saddle up, Spring is coming!

From The Gear Shed: Last Monday was the official start of spring, but we know there’s still some winter to be shredded. So ML staff and partners have picked the latest jackets, lanterns, bindings, mugs and drysuits for winter-spring.
Exploring the sights around beautiful Sutton, Quebec with ML creator @adv_bird ❄️🫶
Back on the road with three generations, dancing lifties, best-on-planet pizza and elusive-but-exquisite pow days.
Live It Up EP 24 is out now!
The Southern Interior region of BC holds an ecological cross-section of the province with alpine meadows, arid Douglas fir grasslands, damp cedar and hemlock forests of the Columbia Mountains and the warm expanse of Shuswap Lake.
Do Not Disturb mode activated ✅ #mountainlifer
Conceived by superhuman snowboarder @travisrice, the @naturalselection Tour highlights earth’s premier riders, from big-mountain mavens to Olympians, all competing on the most stoketastic—and unpredictable—terrain known to humankind.
Built upon a shared desire to enjoy, respect, and advocate for Alberta’s incredible landscapes, it was a natural fit for @elementsoutfitters to work with a local conservation organization @saltslandtrust to highlight the province’s rugged beauty and outdoor apparel to match.
THE UNINVITED INVITATIONAL April 13-16 @woodwardtahoe 😱 $40,000 cash prize purse and a whole lotta spotlight on a group of riders whose time has finally come!! Presented by @jess.kimura and @thenorthface and supported by @yeti @capitasupercorp @slushthemagazine @unionbindingco @smithoptics @sunbum @coalheadwear @fattire 🫡 watch the finals in person Saturday April 15 and join the crew + @btbounds for a public ride day Sunday April 16 @borealmtn. Time to make some history!!! #linkinbio to learn more!
Close your eyes and, for a moment, imagine yourself deep in the polar regions aboard an expedition ship stuck in the ice. The white pack-ice is dazzling, and the immobile vessel seems frozen in time and space. That experience piques your curiosity, doesn't it? Without having to go all the way to Antarctica, you can experience these icy sensations 30 minutes from Quebec City in one of Bora Boréal 's two floating cottages.
