COMP - Sun, Snow and Family

The holidays are all about family, friends… and skiing if you are in my family! Unfortunately my parents are getting older and can't come with us anymore, but both my wife and my little sisters husband are willing to get out there even though they didn't grew up skiing. Our family trips are never about getting in lots of turns or skiing crazy stuff but they are always some of our favorite trips of the year!

This year we spent a couple amazing bluebird days around New Years in Chickidee Valley off HYW 93 and Cirque Peak off the Icefields Parkway. We got a late start the first day and Chickidee Valley was a little tracked out, but Cirque Peak was incredible. So much great terrain up there when things are stable!

Hope this gets you stoked to get your family out in the backcountry with you!
