The “Guides Opinion”
Finally I’m a Canadian Ski Guide! Having completed the ten day CSGA course and exam I felt comfortable naming this sandwich the ‘Guides Opinion’. Lets face it, some people know what they are doing in the mountains, some people know how to make a good sandwich…but only a rare few can do both properly. We had an incredible course with days of rope rescue, avalanche rescue, backcountry travel and even a Heli ski day in the Spearhead.
Lime & Herb Chicken Breast, Swiss, Bacon, Avocado, Baby Spinach, Mayo, Dijon. Boom Boom Boom.
“The Fuel Drop”
Wholewheat bread with honey ham, mature cheddar, avocado, tomato, mayo and mustard, S & P.
From: Nina Van Driel
Location: Sproatt…Fuel Drop area
About the sandwich:
well…it’s not the most exciting sandwich, but I had to make my debut of what I hope to be many yummy sarnies enjoyed in many lovely alpine locations. So this one was: Wholewheat bread with honey ham, mature cheddar, avocado, tomato, mayo and mustard, s&p…squished in a pack and enjoyed on a sunny day of sled accessed playtime on an afternoon off. I was famished at the time of consumption so don’t specifically recall taste…I don’t think I even chewed or paused eating apart from to take this shot…but it was good. food is always good, especially in mountains.
Steep Creek Release
Interesting spring day at Steep Creek in the Duffey. The plan was to do a ridge walk around the area but all solar aspects were sliding, cornices were falling, and the snow was a bit heavy for skiing. Instead we found a high spot to trigger some wet slides and photograph sandwiches.
Chicken Salad, Avocado, Cheddar, Red Onion, Honey Oat Bread
and then an afternoon snack…
Not a sandwich but a great snack wrap with the same view. I made a bean, onion, garlic mix with cheddar cheese and avocado. Looks like one of those cheddar tortillas.
The “Garibaldi Classic”
Turkey, smoked Gouda, avocado …not wrapped but wedged between two thick pieces of pita – legit sandwich
From: DK
Location: Black Tusk looking over Garibaldi Lake, near Squamish BC.
About the Sandwich: I had to pick a starter Alpine Sandwich for the blog and thought not too many can beat the view or the ingredients of the Garibaldi Classic. This is one of the first photos of food I have taken in the backcountry and it is truly one of my favorites.
