The Way's with Westjet

Not that this should come off as a commercial.

but I am pretty stoked on this westjet care-ante- if you get snowed in you get to stay another night and ski the next day- with westjet picking up the tab for the overnight....

now you just have to explain it to the boss - label it a "call in well" day......

Big News!

SnowSeekers has sealed a deal with The Northern Alberta Institute of Technology. We're set to move operations into their Duncan McNeill Centre for Innovation Sept 1 '09. We'll be stationed close to the pub, the gym and it allows us to work with some of the top students from the world of digital media. Some very exciting results for SnowSeekers every where.

Although working from home IS nice, it will be good to get up and GO to work.

Now that that's settled, we just need some snow so I can really get down to business!

A Leopard Who SKIS?

When you hear the word snowleopard many of us would think of an elusive mountain cat, but did you think he could ski?

Hailing out of Ghana - within the African continent, is Kwame Nkrumah-Acheampong who carries the aka of the SnowLeopard. And after a stellar season this past on the international slalom circut, we need to re-phrase this alias to The Olympic SnowLeopard.

Western Canada will roar with the leopard's presence as he arrives to rip the slopes of Whistler for the 2010 Winter Olympics. Kwame a father of two, has spent the last four years in pursuit of his goal, to ski in one of the world's most elite group of skiers.

Keep you eye on this leopard- he is skiing places.

Some of Kwame's sponsors include adventure training specialists The Base Camp Group and Italian and ski helmet producer Beori.

The Olympic Snowleopard Challenge (15th August 2009)

Welcome to The Olympic Snowleopard Challenge.

On behalf of the Ghana Ski Team and one of the UK's premier adventure tour operations entitled the Base Camp Group are introducing the Olympic Snowleopard Challenge 2009.

For those on that side of the pond, this year’s competition will be held at The Snow Centre Hemel Hempstead on the 15th of August. The event which begins at 5pm will feature a dual slalom with the usual overdose of prizes.

About The Event

The Challenge has evolved over the last 4 years, doubling in competitor size from 2005 with 40 competitors and between 100 - 150 friends/family members watching (excluding the general public).

In 2007 the event attracted over 200 people. After a year break the challenge is back and this year we are expecting over 100 athletes, their families, media/press, charities and sponsors.

The challenge is a dual slalom race for both skiers and boarders. The event program will have:

1. A dual slalom race.

2. Followed by a catwalk show.

3. Then the prize ceremony.

4. Lastly, the after event party (a chance to relax after a hectic race evening).
