CANADA DRY & COLD Bodie Shandro SUN PEAKS, BRITISH COLUMBIA

Bodie Shandro is best described as an outdoor enthusiast. He has made it his way of life. In his 52 years he considers that he is incredibly fortunate to have lived an active outdoor lifestyle and he has no intention of stopping now. He is a professional Heli Ski Guide and mountain bike and stand-up paddle, guide instructor and trainer. And throw into the mix Western Canadian Sales Rep for Surftech. He shares his passion with his incredible wife Brenda whom he has been married to for 30 years and a 22-year old daughter, Madison. Living on a beautiful mountainside lake just minutes from Sun Peaks Ski Resort it’s easy to see why he is such an advocate for the great outdoors lifestyle. His summers are spent on Western Canada’s spectacular lakes and rivers and trails while spring and fall take them away in search of surf: Mexico, the Caribbean, Hawaii. In winter you will find Bodie spending over 100 days a season teaching and backcountry ski guiding at Sun Peaks Resort and Mike Wiegele Heli Skiing.
