Greenslide Cattle Drive Twice a year, Revelstoke’s Greenslide Cattle Company drives their herd of hormone-, pesticide- and antibioticfree Gelbvieh cattle from their home pasture at the mouth of the Akolkolex River onto a homemade barge to ship them across the Columbia River to their summer grazing grounds. I joined owners Jim and Adele Graham and ranch manager Dwayne Wright on the May long weekend for a glorious day of hay, horns, cowpies, herding, sorting, cow-persuading and boating in the shadow of Mount McCrae. The word-ofmouth operation is thriving in a world that increasingly values local produce done right. Learn more in our feature story on page 11. Aaron Orlando/Revelstoke Times Review
Cabin Fever Revelstoke snowboard shop, lounge and bowling alley The Cabin hosted an invite-only snowboard event at Revelstoke Mountain Resort over the May long weekend. It featured food, drinks and a DJ booth atop the gondola and a purpose-built course featuring some rollers and jumps on the hill. The view overlooking the verdant green Columbia Valley was in stark contrast to the usual snowy vista from Mount Mackenzie during the winter. The slushy snow conditions were rapidly deteriorating, including lots of bare patches, but hey, it’s riding in May. Here, the phantom of the Stoke chair rides to the top.
