Jeff is one of those solid humans we love to talk to. He rode the river of life and the flow took him to rekindle love in Nelson, B.C., make it his home, and create an amazing catskiing playground for the world to enjoy. It wasn’t easy or without risk, but soooo worth the 700 bucks and case of beer. Cheers to you, the next one’s on us.
