Coming to Canada!
Aaron Stone posted,
Hey I'm heading up to Vancouver tomorrow (the 8th) and I'll be there for a few days. I'm not sure where I'll be staying, plans are nonexistent, all I know is I'm going to be in Vancouver for a few days and I wanna skate some shit! Nothing super gnar, can't break any bones on this trip and I'm not super shred. It would be sick if I could get some names and numbers and where you're from so if I land there I can call you up and get some skating in.
(I thought I was going to be in Vancouver Island but it doesn't look like that now)
ALSO I need help, what route is best from Vancouver to Winnipeg??
The high road through Edmonton, 2,457 miles.

Or the low road through Calgary, 2,292 miles.

I'm on the road now in Oregon... Now I'm trying to go from Portland OR, to Goldendale WA, to Vancouver BC... Is the 150 extra miles worth traveling to skate Maryhill??

Aaron Stone replied,
we stopped in oregon because maryhill was too long of a drive forsure, and it's faster to come up the 5 straight to van.
i'm in oregon right now and i'm heading up to vancouver in a few minutes. i'm staying at golden ears provincial park; "located in the coast mountains 11km north of maple ridge on the north side of fraser river"
anyone near there post up some phone numbers!!
