Places we love to work.

The Argos campaign for holiday season was a monster of a production and we were over the moon to be involved. Filmed just below the Valle Nevado ski resort in Chile, South America.
There are thousands of places to ski and snowboard on the planet. So many choices. They all hold their own special magic. Here’s a list of the places on this globe that I’ve been lucky enough to visit once, twice and even more. We've also created some sort of media at each of these locations. Feature films, ad campaigns, photos and the list goes on...

MICA HELI, British Columbia, Canada

This glorious operation is located north of Revelstoke, British Columbia, Canada and is nestled up against the Eastern Rockies.  There is no road to the lodge and it is strictly fly-in and fly-out. We’ve had the pleasure to work in the location on two separate occasions filming commercials for Nike ACG.

RETALLACK, BC, Canada

This wild interior British Columbia operation is a renegade in my eyes, but in a good way. It has amazing glades(tree runs) and a really down to earth staff. After choking on powder all day we were treated to a fire pit and beers when our steamy and stoked snow-cat came back down to the lodge.

ISLAND LAKE LODGE, BC, Canada

This place is one of the originals and I’m calling it “Gangster cat-skiing”. The Lizard Range in Fernie, BC, is known for it’s deep powder snow and mystical old-growth forests.

It’s high quality terrain and amenities make for producing world class projects one of my favourite locations to shoot.

LAKE LOUISE, Alberta, Canada

Ahhhh.. the Lake!  I’ve ridden here more than any other place in the world.  It’s my home mountain and always will be.  The steeps of Whitehorn and the perfect grooming make this place a go-to in all conditions. It’s always good! Best views in Canada.

EAGLE PASS HELI, BC, Canada

Just outside of Revelstoke, this boutique heli operation has everything you need and they make sure you get the goods.  We love this place.  Filmed some amazing shots here. Must get back ASAP!

SKOKI LODGE, Alberta, Canada

Canada’s oldest backcountry lodge is tucked in behind the Lake Louise ski area.  Take the time to ski out there and take in the history. The perfect winter cowboy location.

UTAH, USA

The license plate reads “Greatest Snow on Earth”  It just might be.  Awesome lift access and long runs with a snow-pack bigger than most in North America.

VALLE NEVADO, Chile, South America

Fly straight down to Santiago, Chile from any where in North America in the summer and jump right into winter snowboarding and skiing.  Valle Nevado Ski Resort is just under 2 hours from the airport.  You can stay up at the resort or do day trips and explore the vibrant streets of Santiago by night.

NEVADOS de CHILLAN, Chile, South America

Deep snow, and…deep snow.  That’s what this South American resort is all about.  It will take you back to a time when the powder just doesn’t get tracked out in one day.

RK HELI SKIING, BC, Canada

I had the pleasure of snowboarding here on a beautiful spring day and had some amazing turns. RK Heli-Skiing operates out of the Panorama, BC ski base area. It’s easy to get to from Banff, Alberta and the Calgary airport in just a day.

ICEFALL LODGE, BC, Canada

This area is the definition of ‘mountain magic’! Working in this remote area is challenging, but truly rewarding when the results head to post production.
