Back home to Squamish

from: Dominique Vallée | views (480) | comments (0)

I just finally moved back to Squamish, BC from Montreal, QC a few days ago. Not only has Whistler been having the best year ever for snow but we are also having the Olympic Games in our back yard starting in a few days now. It's crazy to be here, a huge part of Whistler is closed for the ski racing events, Vancouver is so clean you could eat off the sidewalk and there's blue Vanoc workers everywhere you go from Sea to Sky. PLus there's hilicopters flying around us surveying all the time as well as road closure and no parking in Whistler starting right now. So I guess there's some good and bad to it all.

I didn't make the Canadian Olympic pipe team after all this. But lots has happened in the past little while and I guess it's time to go ride powder with friends finally and leave the pipe contests on the side for now. I'll be forerunning the pipe so I'll still get to hang out with all my friends during the training and event and live it live. 

It's really crazy that after 7 years of Olympic planning for British Columbia that it's all finally here and happening.

Keep you guys posted, 

I'm running with the Olympic Torch in a few days in Squamsih. That will be pretty amazing and stoke-up the Olympic Spirit for sure.
