1/ Bucket List: CMH Summer Adventure
Multi-day trips from $3,595

They’ve done it again. GoPro is back with the release of another impressive camera that consistently produces mesmerizing footage. You don’t have to be a trained videographer to create unbelievably smooth content, whatever your adventure. Marvel at the unshakable HyperSmooth 2.0 stabilization, built-in mounting, and the ability to modify the Hero8 to how you choose, with a light, mic and more.
3/ Omaze: Donate + Win a Heli-Skiing Trip
The price is up to you
Give something back this holiday season and you could WIN A HELI-SKIING TRIP for two. We’ve teamed up with Omaze, a company that offers you the chance to win incredible prizes, while also raising money for very worthy causes. You can enter to win a CMH heli-skiing trip with an optional donation to the Avalanche Canada Foundation. The more you donate, the more entries you receive. The winner is chosen at random. Simple.
Newly released this month are Smith’s 4D MAG goggles. The ever-evolving brand unveiled its latest eyewear with the new Birds Eye Vision lens tech that gives you a 25% increased field of view. The ChromaPop tech is also in there, plus a quick and easy interchangeable lens system for when you’re on the move.
“Built for big mountain realities”. Arc’teryx never fails to deliver, and the Rush Jacket is evidence of that. Waterproof, windproof, comfortable, durable, hardwearing, breathable, GORE-TEX. Everything you need in dependable outerwear for mountain conditions.
6/ Atomic: Skis
Prices vary
Slide your way into the good books with a pair of Atomic skis. Take your pick from Piste, All Mountain, Freeski and Race skis for both women and men – there’s something for any terrain.
