I find November  a tough month to be in Canada. Sometimes the preseason skiing is good, but the rain and the grey often dims my motivation to explore.

I always try to squeak in a quick climbing or surfing trip so that I can come back home and start to get fired up for ski season.

Shortly before heading off to Taiwan for some climbing and 'work', G3 Engineer Cam Shute managed to take advantage of pretty much the only precipitation BC has seen this month! Here's his update from another tough day at the office...

Never one to miss an opportunity, G3 Engineer Cam Shute wasn't going to fly all the way to Taiwan for business with out mixing it up with some recreation. Here's a post of what he found...

 The importance of being able to go with the flow became very apparent to me last week, when at 9PM on the day before I was supposed to hike into a remote base camp in the Sothern Purcell mountains of BC, our plan changed dramatically due to weather. We hatched our decision to bail at 9PM, and by 6AM we had changed course to go climbing in southern California in search of perfect granite multipitch climbing.

With fresh snow in the alpine and a top secret new product that needed some testing, G3 engineer Cam Shute wasn't going to let the perfect opportunity for a ski day go to waste. He met up with Nelson based photographer Kari Medig and scored a pretty solid ski day considering it was only mid October! Here's some quick notes and photos from what looks like a pretty sweet day of 'product testing'. Pretty sweet indeed.
