Hey guys,

Firstly, I don't mean to cause any offence with this post. Apologies if it stirs any animosity towards me, that is certainly not the intent. I am a regular group poster, future Whistler seasonaire and just general MASSIVE fan of Whistler :)

I was hoping, as a fellow group and Flickr member, that I could steal a couple of seconds of your time. I am currently in serious contention to win a dream trip to Canada in a competition ran by Crescent Spur Heliskiing. However, I am lagging behind in second place and was hoping I could persuade my Flickr brothers and sisters to unite as one and help a fellow member win the top prize! (sorry for the corny bit, but I'm trying to stir passion!) :) or even just check out the comp and vote on the one you see as the best.

If you would be so kind as to vote on my image (of course, feel free to peruse the challengers) it would mean a great deal to me and my fiancee. In fact, who 'am I kidding? It would make the PERFECT start to our wedding gift list and married life this May!!!

All you have to do is click the link provided here then click Vote (the thumbs up icon - please don't just click Like as many people have done, this does not count) and the number should rise almost immediately. There is absolutely no spamming involved, I just need each and every little vote I can muster and thought there would be nowhere better than here to help me. The only slight catch is you have to have a Facebook account for the company to acknowledge you are a real person and not just one guy moving from one CyberCafe to another totting up votes. If you don't have Facebook, then fine, no worries, I understand. However, if you don't have Facebook but know someone that does... then beat them, bribe them, do whatever it takes to get a vote registered... haha.

Seriously guys, apologies for the plug, I have never done anything,like this before but I have helped out when I have seen similar stuff and this prize... well, just imagine your dream holiday, for FREE... you just need your Flickr buddies to help by taking less than five seconds and clicking vote :)

Thank you so much. I really appreciate your time, but will do back flips for your votes :0... and may even upload the tragic results ;)

All the best people and I hope this plea finds you well :)

Ryan

I wish to introduce a Challenge to pay tribute to all fallen brothers or sisters, in the mountains. We all have lost friends there. Therefore I invite Ski Mountaineering / film making teams for the following challenge. Teams of your preference, average from four to six people per team, would leave Blackcomb Saturday , May 22nd and have three days to arrive in Pemberton. This is NOT a race. Rather, teams would take three days and two nights to travel from Blackcomb, via Wedge and Mt Currie. Along the way each team would ski as much terrain as possible and document their mission on stills and video. Safety is a huge criteria and will be judged. Each team should take a GPS and record their route. The skiing could be logged and later displayed with google earth. The teams would have until 9pm Monday night to reach Pemberton and Mexico Lindo Restaurant, next to the Pemberton Hotel and Pub. Later , the teams would have a week to prepare an audio visual presentation of their route on the closing Saturday Night of May 29th.

The project would be judged on

AMOUNT OF SKIING ALONG ROUTE
THE AESTHETICS , LINES CHOSEN , TERRAIN
SAFETY
THE PRESENTATION AWARDS TBA

Each presentation would be encouraged to be made as a dedication to a fallen friend from from our outdoor community. You can use stills, archives , video clips to introduce “ the Lost Souls “ in question. You are also more than welcome to use the event, gather sponsors and donate proceeds to families or foundations of the “lost souls “ you are representing.

Hello,
This is Brad from whistlerblackcomb.com. We're starting a new Flickr Group for images of Whistler, BC. The plan for this group is to build a social photo gallery which will feed directly to the whistlerblackcomb.com website. We'd like to share your experiences of Whistler with the rest of our readers. Winter skiing, snowboarding, Village lifestyle, apres to Summer hiking, biking and scenery. Any memories you'd like to share about Whistler.

Please feel free to drop me a note if you have any questions or suggestions. We'll start posted your images to the website once the group develops. Thanks and hope to see you in Whistler soon!
