Last year, I was lucky enough to go on my first heli trip representing SPY. It was a super last minute trip but I dropped everything to make it happen. I headed out the next day to Revelstoke where I met up with the Rocky Mountain Sherpa‘s (big ski production company – check out their new release ‘All I Can”). Some fellow Whistlerites were on board, all skiers except for me, which was different for sure, but cool to hang with some different people and made some new buddies.
When you first get to Mica, you are greeted by their team in Revelstoke, you then drive 2 hours to the end of a road, where you unload your gear and all of a sudden a heli shows up. This place is 100% heli-accessed so everything has to be flown in and out (food, booze, supplies, and people!). The lodge you fly into is insane! It’s a huge log cabin with tons of rooms, hot tubs, and gourmet chefs. The guides are super knowledgeable and the heli pilots like to stunt.
While there, we were shooting for a big promo video aired all over the US and Canada for Mica – here it is:
Here’s some pics too (click here OR the image below)
This beaut was shot by Mica’s own Darryn Shewchuck
