We had an amazing time this year. To those that were able to join in, thanks and see you next year. For those who couldn't be there, see you next year, we would love to have you visit.

We had a record number of participants in the demos, the clinics, the races, the parties...all of it. We had great skiing again with cooler temperatures under sunny skies. With so much action in the valley with the TELUS World Ski and Snowboard festival in full swing, the mountains were pretty much left to us to enjoy.

The Demo programs and clinics were fantastic with great conditions to test next years Scarpa boots, Movement Skis, Black Diamond equipment, Colltex skins, The North Face tents and clothing, Prior split boards, and many, many more great brands all there to show and test their next year's gear.

The free clinics were a big hit with many who took the opportunity to get some expert tips from the pro tele skiers or from the avalanche pros from Ortovox, Snowpulse or the Whistler Alpine Guides Bureau. Regardless of what backcountry skill you wanted to explore there was a pro who could help you out and answer your questions.

A huge thanks to all of our sponsors listed below and especially to you...the skiers and boarders that participated in North America's biggest backcountry party.
