another one of his most epic vids... this one is from the north, west and south twin along with the twins tower on the columbia icefields... the exposure in some of these shots is mind numbing:

I had not heard of Trevor so thanks for sharing his stoke, nah000, even if it is for such tragic reasons.
I love exploring the mountains on skis and am looking forward to watching his videos later.

nah000, In true hardman style he actually mostly worked nights. He was well known for getting in the car to begin an approach at 7 am on whatever his Friday was at that time and just barely dragging his ass out of the bush to make shift at 11 pm on 'Monday'.

thanks for the posts folks...

as long as this keeps getting bumped, i'm going to keep adding vids... :)

here's another favorite, even though it was only posted a few weeks ago [and was the last vid that sexsmith posted]...

it starts with canoeing across maligne lake near jasper [which would be a good adventure in and of itself] then hiking to access a bunch of early season descents over three days... this adventure was from just five weeks ago:

Brazeau Icefield Skiing September 11-13, 2016

and in case you don't have the 11 minutes for that last vid here's the shorter two minute highlight version of the same trip:

Trevor passed on a year ago today. It was very impressive the big lines he managed to ski the previous few years.

RIP. Wish he was still around!

A eulogy from Trevor's good friend and ski partner, Matt Ruta:

^^^ Unbelievably poignant and beautifully worded.

We should all be so lucky to have even one friend think half so highly of us when we escape this dimension.

Thanks KS.

Am sad to write that today is 2 years since Trevor passed on. If not for that early season soft slab, we'd be even more amazed by what Trevor would have skied that no one else ever had.

I'm sure he'd be pleased to know Matt Ruta is still carrying the torch, when it comes to steep first descents.
