Scott Sych’s parents recently bought a property 30 minutes outside of Clearwater, BC. The locals (including police) informed us that this particular cabin was previously a massive grow-op, and that the government seized the land and jailed the heads behind the operation. Apparently the drug lords were trying to burn all the evidence as the police rolled up onto the property… BUSTED.

I could write an entire novel about Scotts cabin, but I’ll keep short. No heat, no water, no fridge, no rooms. Just a wooden structure holding up a roof filled with cockroaches. Shayne said it was the most disgusting place he’d ever stayed in. I thought it was perfect…

We’d been planning this trip to the middle of butt-fak nowhere for quite some time. Friends kept asking, “are you going to shoot powder? How are the conditions? Is there even sledding out there?” We didn’t really know what to expect. The plan was no plan, and often these trips turn out the best. Yes we did sled… in fact we sledded lots. But NO, we didn’t touch an inch of pow except for breaking trail from the logging road to the cabin…. “urban sled town-ins” if you will: junk yards, playgrounds, baseball diamonds, construction sites, and rail yards. As Max would say, “we jibbed the shit outta Coldwater”. And as Shayne would say, “jea, jea”. Scotty probably wouldn’t say anything.

Our first session was probably the most fun, and almost the entire town came out to have beers and watch (at 11am, obvi). A dumpsite filled with old broke down cars, trucks, busses and RV’s stacked on top of each other. We could have spent an entire week at that spot.

Round 2 was a session at the bleachers of a baseball diamond. “Its a butter pad to launch and tap the shit out of the fence to 15 foot drop”, Max explains. We had a solid 2-hour session and everyone got something dialed on it. We then shot this cool fence ride in the same zone, and moved on to a night shoot at a derelict construction site.

We had our own run in with the CLPD as they rolled up on us during our final session, and seized our shoot. “You guys are quick here in Clearwater”, Max says. “But not quick enough, we got the shot.”

Here’s the video to illustrate our ghetto trip to Coldwater… or Clearwater or whatever it’s called…
