Keep Calm

Carry on?    F@*% that wartime propaganda! It's time to PANIC! Everyone needs to start running their mouths about the things they think are important. "Those who stand for nothing fall for anything." -Alexander Hamilton
Speaking of standing up: Thousands of people stood up for the Land on November 16th all across Canada. Is there any chance that creepy excuse for a leader heard what we're telling him? Would he even listen if he did? All eyes are on SWN resources while our illegitimate government to push it's agenda of socializing the risk while they privatize the profits.


Some peoples children won't stand by and allow this nonsense to continue. This Saturday there will be a fundraiser happening for the Warriors that the Crown, RCMP and corporate media are attempting to vilify and intimidate.


It's cold and there's snow on the mountains right now and although I'm very excited to start pushing snowflakes around, I can't seem to shake that yearning for summer beaches and warm weather.
These pictures of Grant Shilling and Kyle Martin were taken on Longbeach while enroute to Ahousat to share skateboarding with some of the youth of Flores island. Cool Storry Bro!

Uh oh

Shit's going downhill fast around here.... Chairman Harper just signed the Comprehensive European Economic Trade Agreement (CETA) and the potential ramifications are devastating. Don't you find it strange that we haven't been consulted on this? In other news our domestic armed forces (aka. the RCMP) got a chance to use their sweet camouflage outfits and assault rifles in order to serve a court injunction . An injunction that was sought by a private corporation... http://www.swnnb.ca/ ... in order to continue fracking exploration in the backyard of the Mi'kmaq people.


Too bad they didn't use our tax dollars to buy some more appropriately hued camo colours... think autumn chuckle heads.
 The potential hazard to the water table is a risk the Mi'kmaq and Elsipogtog are not willing to take. So stand in solidarity with them... because if you don't stand for something, you'll fall for anything.

Those unnecessary plastics...

and our inability to properly dispose of our trash will be the death of us all.

Following in others footsteps

Is sometimes the only way to get where you're going. Especially when there's a sheer drop down into the clouds on your left...
and a solid tumble onto sunny boulders on your right.
Be sure to look around and enjoy the view because you might not be back this way for some time

and when you do, things might not be the same.
So take a minute to run your fingers through the moss and enjoy those perfect moments while they last.

Get lost!

... in the woods that is.
Going for a hike with your friends is fun, especially when you get to skate to and from the trail head.
Taking the path less traveled is just how I do things sometimes, so be sure to leave yourself some breadcrumbs in order to find your way home.


 No pain no gain (960 meters of gain to be precise). Everyone was all smiles once we made it to The Needles.


Hayato and I like to doddle taking photo's.... but in the end nobody got lost, and we all made it back to the cars safely.

In the name of "Freedom"


This photo was taken more than a year ago while Laurel and I were on our honeymoon. I can't believe how long it took yo-bomba to find an excuse to get involved in other peoples business. Big thanks to queen and country for helping us down the road to war.  Good thing he didn't close Guantanamo.... sorry, what I meant to say was "Obama is a liar and should be impeached!" (sarcasm just gets the best of me sometimes)

Take a Hike!

 It was Hayato's birthday on Sunday, so we went for a walk in the woods...

 
 
... and some peoples children really enjoyed the awesome sound of a fracturing glacier as it echoed throughout the valley. Once again Hayato won the day without even trying.

Like this patio, with the most epic view of the Sound. (click it!)

Ben gives incredible weight to Tolkien's "Not all those who wander are lost",being that in his time thus far on the globe, he has accomplished and inspired more then most do with their whole lives. Shine on you crazy diamond!

Stevie Harper to step down!

He has cited his emotional inadequacies and betrayal of the Canadian peoples interests as his reasoning for such a move. Never have I wished this were more true.... April fools...

For some shit that fucker really did, check HERE.

A Trip to Mt. Steel

 Our day of hiking to the cabin on Mt. Steel was split in two due to how long it took me to struggle towing the snow skate sled that I brought with me. So we woke up on Sunday and after breakfast headed out for the final push. Just as we're departing, our friend Eric walks up, quite confused to be seeing familiar faces in the woods.

Arriving at the Mt. Steel cabin in time for dinner gave us the rest of the eve to session a wind lip with the snow skate (this made my struggle worthwhile, as everyone had a blast). Monday was quite socked in, though we still managed to get in a couple of runs.On Tuesday morning I awoke slightly before sunrise to blue skies, and managed to make it to the top just as the sun crested Raven Dance peak.... so epic!


Finally after breakfast we headed to the untouched peak to make our mark on that which Ullr provided.

First hike of 2013

Blake, Mitch, Aaron, Eric and myself went up Mount Seymour to catch the sunrise this morning.

And catch it we did. Last year every time we attempted a dawn patrol, the weather thwarted us. Being blessed with the clear skies of this January day, I feel that 2013 is going to be a good year.
