CALL ME CRAZY: The Legend of Mike Wiegele

[@carolannandpeterwilliams2195]

The best skiing of my life, with two of the finest people I have ever met....committed, passionate, hard working and a tonne of fun!

[@twochordcool]

Lived the dream...more people should.

[@michelleyamamotoart]

Rest in peace, Mr Wiegele. I loved my heli experiences with your crew and hope to have more.

[@Selkirkwater]

Mike and Bonnie. Two of the nicest people in the Rockies.

Seriously the sickest lines of a life time and best guilds ever the experience of a life time I will never forget. Mike. I will always remember Blue River. The Godfather of heli powder skiing.

[@justchirpin3080]

My first day working there Mike and I started talking and he took me out in the helicopter to ride within a half hour of meeting him. The winter I worked there was the best winter of my life. There is nothing cooler than Mike Weigele's!!!!!

[@willysworldtv]

What a fucking legend.

[@thomasandrewhansen]

Ever since meeting Mike just briefly, he has been one of the biggest influencers in my life and a huge inspiration. It's phenomenal that he managed to create and grow a small village in literally the middle of nowhere. Whilst designing a beautiful lifestyle one can only ever dream of. I hope MWHS continues to flourish through the years to come.

Thanks very much Thomas! The MWHS team is very proud of Mike and all of his accomplishments. He has built a remarkable legacy.

Was at Wiegele in the year 2000 as a 15 year old kid with a huge appetite for powder! Doug Lundgren was my guide and literally still the best moments of my life with my family and specifically my father who passed away just recently... I will be back someday and it will be amazing! RIP Mike

Fantastic cinematography and a great Canadian ski story. I skied there in the mid-nineties and is still one of the best, most memorable ski days of my life. Thanks for the vision Mike. Truly a legendary ski pioneer.

It's a good thing he did end up in Toronto. If not, a lot of good ol' Prairie ski hills would have probably never existed :) Mike, if you ever see this, Ken from Mark-Valley says hi. (And still straps on the boards every winter)
