About the sandwich:
There is an African proverb: “It takes a village to raise a child.”
There is also an Alpine proverb: “It takes a village to raise an alpine sandwich.”
I have many people to thanks for the ingredients that came together to create this delicious sandwich, including one who did so unwittingly. Ciabatta bread (thanks mom!), organic arugula, double smoked farmers’ cut bacon, tomato (thanks Ryan!), and lemonaise (thanks mystery roommate!). Superb texture and taste.

The “Heli Drop”

About the sandwich: Half way through the Canadian Ski Guide Level 1 course we had a day of bluebird heliskiing in the Spearhead Range. We were sort of in ‘go go go’ mode and I didn’t have much time to line up the perfect shot (or even get the sandwich in focus). The day was still epic, as was the wich.  I bought the roast beef sandwich at Mount Currie Coffee Co in Pemby. I think it has mad it onto the site at least once before.

The “Chief P, Roast B”

 

Roast beef, provolone, carmelize onions, dijon aoili, sauteed mushrooms, arugula. on rustic  ciabatta

Location: Duffey Lake area, BC

About the sandwich: Sometime in the middle of February I went up to the Duffy to take advantage of the new snow and clear sky weather.  Jeff and I toured up Chief Pascal to ski the Equinox line and made an attempt on the peak before heading down.  The ridge walk towards the summit had some pretty sporty sections and unfortunately we had to turn around about 10 feet from the top.  That whole ‘its about the journey not the destination’ spiel often works well with my mountain philosophy but 10ft? Come on!

The Roast Beef sandwich came from the Mount Currie Coffee Co. in Pemberton.  Great day to eat any sandwich up high in the mountains…this one really hit the spot though.

 

 

Jeff put together his GoPro footage from the day…
