This years event has had a great first few days and if the weather cooperates we will have a promising week to come!

This past weekend the annual CMBC 24 Hours of Light Mtn Bike event was held in Whitehorse. After weeks of miserable weather the sun decided to kick it into high gear and graced us with its presence. The event this year attracted participants from all over Canada and Alaska making it more challenging for Yukoners to shine.
Same rules applied as years before, no headlamps and most laps within the 24 hr period wins for each division. A new incentive this year for gaining an extra lap was an underwear lap where participants would wear there new 24 Hours of Light underwear with a bra for women and shirtless for men. After half a dozen to over a dozen laps with padded bike shorts a 12km lap with no padding made for a pretty sore ride!

This past weekend the annual Haines to Haines road relay bike race was held with competitors traveling by teams or solo, almost 250km from Haines Junction, Yukon Territory to Haines, Alaska. With 5 cm’s of snow projected in the mtn passes and rain following the competitors throughout the day, the event was looking bitter from a riders standpoint. Although mother nature gave nearly her worst, competitors battled through the conditions being paid off throughout the day with small bursts of sunshine.

570km driving north, 3 day window, a 3 year on-going photo shoot, northern lights and spring snowboarding. When all of these factors finally came together my friend Gabe Rivest and I found ourselves driving 7 hours north to the famous Dempster Highway to find some end of season snow and northern lights. With the potential of northern lights being active we were wishing that the Tombstone Mtn Range would deliver great weather, allowing us to finally get the northern lights snowboarding images. After trying over the past 3 winters I was getting very anxious to nail these images, hence the last minute trip to the Tombstones.
We arrived in the early afternoon to be greeted with a warm 5°C and a beautiful blue sky filled with a warm sun that seemed to bump up the temperature up another 10°. Gabe and I set up shop and ended up finding a great location just above the Tombstone lookout and ended up building a quarter pipe with the slushy spring snow, so that come midnight it would firm up giving us a perfect feature for the lights. While waiting for 10pm sunset Gabe and I enjoyed the afternoon sun with some fun in the sun snowboarding accompanied by an enjoyable sunset on the Tombstone Valley.
A long and steep way down!
Gabe's dog Taiga even joined us on the hike, and made it down the face once Gabe was done!!
'Sitting on Top of the World'
Big looming rocks, steep lines, fresh snow equate to a beautiful view with the Ogilvie Mtns in the backdrop!
Although the lower and lower we went the snow turned rotten and heavy but Gabe was still able to find some fresh powder pockets
Blue-bird cliff drops! Who would have thought they can be found in the Yukon
I ended up setting my 300mm lens up, on a remote camera way off in the distance to get a second angle of Gabe
