Just outside of Revelstoke lies a little slice of heaven called the Blanket Glacier Chalet. This helicopter accessed remote backcountry chalet has become a home away from home of sorts for Eric Hjorleifson. When owner Marty Schaffer called us with a couple last minute spots, we knew we had to get Peter Wojnar to follow Hoji around and document his signature ‘Effortless’ style.
“Last winter we had the opportunity to go up to Blanket Glacier Chalet during a window of killer weather. A fresh coating of 30-50cm of super blower pow laid on top of a bulletproof ice crust from a recent rain event which swept the province. Not deep enough to jump off stuff, we stepped back and focused on shooting Hoji’s effortless style closer to the ground. Big shoutout to Marty Schaffer for having us and to the rest of the Blanket crew for letting us do our thing!” – Peter Wojnar
