Some like to say that the mountains in and around Nelson, BC aren’t that big. The Coast, Revelstoke, the Rockies, Alaska, those are the real mountains…at least we’ve heard that before. And there is some truth to that. However, this sweet little edit from Dave Treadway proves there are definite pockets of large. Watch as the Pemberton-based skier drops a line for the ages at Stellar Heliskiing, in the mountains surrounding Kaslo, BC.
