evelstoke is a weird wonderland. Not that you need more things to do this winter, but Reved wanted to know— what are your favourite weird, winter activities? Here they are, along with some suggestions of our own. Just because the sun, axis of the planet, weather, temperature and entire world says it’s winter—summer-like activities still abound. Do you miss weekends at the lake?—why not try tubing around the Save On parking lot? (Also a fun family activity.) There’s no reason not to go biking, fishing or camping —with the right gear, “season” is just a state of mind. If you’re feeling extra seasonal, whatever that means, then you will probably find whatever you’re looking for at the Thrift Store(A must for Locals Day(s) and Gnar Day on the hill.) For a quieter getaway, hike/ tour/snowshoe up to Mount Revelstoke’s Caribou Cabin. The close-to-home excursion is great for the body and mind.
Stay overnight and ski down in the morning. Bird watching is a popular year-round pastime, and in the winter, one of the most active birds is the grey jay. The most reliable place to see them in action is at the Mackenzie Outpost at the top of Mount Mackenzie gondola. There, the grey jays live large off of croissant bits. (Incidentally, the birds cover it with saliva that has a preservative effect and stash it underneath bark in the crotch of a tree. The more you Just know...) driving to and from Revel-
stoke (if you must) can be a daring, sporty feat, especially after a major snowfall.Remember!—keep extra food and gear in your vehicle in case you get stuck for avalanche control— don’t be a hero trying to get out of town on a quarter-tank. Better yet, treat yourself to a flight. The time and trouble saved, plus beauty, is worth it. There are occasionally last-minute seat sales. Or, what else are you going to do with all this snow but build a snowman as a big as a house. Just work at that body, and make sure you don’t hurt nobody.

The DOGTOR IS WAGGING TO SEE YOU Brushy the doggy psychiatrist is awesome
Brushy is one of Revelstoke’s weirdest, most wonderful medical professionals. (There are several...) He’s a yellow doggo from Pacific Assistance Dogs Society in Burnaby. The counselling department hired him at Revelstoke Secondary, where he helps people who are stressed to regulate their emotions and, maybe by rubbing his ears or petting under his collar, helping their brains release happy hormones. Follow on FB @PADSBrush
Newsmakers & Non-Newsmakers SquIRREL SAVIOUR John Morrison saw an injured squirrel sitting on the center line of Hwy 1, so he made a u-turn and scooped the little guy up. “It was a miracle the squirrel was not run over ... It was shaking uncontrollably, so I cradled it in my hands and kept it close to my chest. Eventually it was purring and stopped shaking,” he said. The squirrel was alive despite a bad head wound. John kept the squirrel in his hands for hours to give it warmth and comfort, then made a nest in at cat kennel and stayed up with it until 2 am.
“My worst fear was it dying alone... When I looked in the kennel in the morning I was saddened to see it had moved out of its nest ... and died sometime in the night. I kicked myself for leaving it alone because I truly do believe the comfort and being in my hands made all the difference. I made a wooden box and buried it in the woods with the respect I believe all living creatures deserve.” “We can’t just drive by in life. We have to extend compassion and empathy towards all creatures.”
#ICYMI: What THe H3-L is a “CE-5”?
So, there’s a dedicated group of night-sky watchers here in Revy who conduct CE-5 missions. (Missions? Forays?) Basically, getting away from city lights, finding a good vantage point, watching the sky, and searching for extraterrestrial intelligence. It sounded far-out, so Reved went along for a CE-5. Read “ET & ME: How light and love led one man on a journey into the orld of UFOs.”
“That night, we had spectacular and incredible contact. ... I saw my first UFO; I saw my fiftieth UFO.” —Dan Berg

Ooh baby, it’s a wild world over at Parks Canada’s Revelstoke office. Verena Blasy brought her cat Scribbles to work, who had a full day’s work being captivated by some of the office decorations, namely this taxidermied raven. (See more funny felines in the Reved catsified ads, page 14.)
HAVE YOU BEEN TO
Spice O’ Life ... turn up the heat this winter!
Nirvana?... In Revelstoke?...
BRITCHES BE LIKE...
FLASH HISTORY: Georgia Engelhardt famously dared to wear pants while climbing instead of socially mandated Victoria climbing skirts. The Banff Crag & Canyon editorialized in 1920: “The young women who strut about the streets and dine in the hotels dressed in riding togs should be soundly spanked and sent to bed… Pants are made for men and not for women. Women are made for men and not for pants…” Ouch. Well, the pro-climber wasn’t big on skirts and she wasn’t big on clothes in general, it seems. Her aunt was painter and photographer Georgia O’Keefe, who immortalized Engelhardt in a nude portrait, now displayed at Museum of Modern Art in New York.
HUMAN SNOWFLAKES Photographer Rob Buchanan snapped these fancy portraits of the staff and families of Avalanche Canada and the Canadian Avalanche Association. Avalanche Canada is the national public avalanche safety organization. CAA represents professional avalanche workers in Canada. Both national organizations are headquartered right here in Revelstoke.
HAVE YOU BEEN TO
Holten Heritage House New name, same old ...possibly haunted...
Bed & Breakfast!
DON’T FEAR THE INNKEEPERS The newly renamed Holten Heritage House has a new name and new faces, but it is the same old (possibly haunted) bed and breakfast. The house has a long and storied past. Now, two new managers Dean Leman and Kathleen Bailey are putting a new face on the old place, changing the name to suit its historic nature. ABOVE: The Holten House’s “Grand Entrance” (and spooky staircase) circa 1907 Every corner of every room features wooden Swedish-designed moldings and filigree embellishments The hidden “butler’s staircase, leading from the butler’s quarters to the kitchen. “Watch your head,” says co-manager Dean Leman , “he was a short butler.” Just a hairless baby doll on window sill—not creepy at all.

Q&A WITH Body Painter Tina Schultz Her body is her canvas
S
he can be a plague-infected nurse, a water nymph, orc, toxic candy girl or “Super Grover” (above). Whatever or whomever she chooses to be, body-paint artist Tina Schultz can do it. She has lived in Revelstoke for five years, and been painting herself for three. She spoke with Reved to paint a picture of what body painting is all about.
RQ How do you do it—painting yourself? I mean,h ow do you get hard-to-reach areas? TS I do left- and right-hand painting in the mirror, so I paint in reverse.
RQ What kind of paint do you use? TS That is the biggest question. They are strictly body paints. They are not acrylic paints you buy at the Dollar Store (that a lot of people use that are toxic for your skin). They’re strictly body paints—vegan, hypo-allergenic, not bad for your skin...
RQ What was your first one? TS I don’t remember. I just know it was horrible, I can tell you that.
RQ How long does it take to do a painting? TS It averages from two to six hours. RQ And how long to take all that paint off? TS About 20 minutes. It just comes off with baby wipes and soap. RQ Do you ever have a hard time washing your work literally down the drain? TS The really, really long ones that take over four hours are hard. I have to do the painting, plus the photography, plus the editing, plus I have to wash stuff and clean up my mess, so we’re looking at another couple hours after I paint. Some of them I don’t want to wash it off because it took sooo long to do it. It is kind of waste... I do work on canvas so I can keep it. RQ—And you don’t have to hose it down. TS Yea, right? RQ—What do you tell people who aren’t familiar with body painting what it is? TS I just say that I’m a painter and I use my body as a canvas. That’s just how I express my ideas and vivid imagination. Sometimes they think it’s like face-painting and it’s not face-painting. Face-painting, for me, is for children. RQ Is it a year-round—or purely Halloween— thing? TS I wish I had time to do it year-round, but I do it for the 31 days of Halloween. RQ Are they all scary? TS That depends on my mood. Usually I have three or four reference pictures. People always say my looks have the “Tina Twist.” There’s never just one character.
RQ Wow, like Van Gogh, if he body painted his self portrait. TS Yea. I figured if I lose one arm I better know how to paint with my left.
RQ Do you have favourites? TS The ones that make me laugh. The Super Grover () I liked that one. RQ Do they mean anything? TS No, there’s no meaning other than how I feel that day, or a colour I’m attracted to. RQ Do you body paint other people? TS I tend not to unless my face is hurting. It’s easier for me to paint myself because I have a steady hand and I can take as long as I want and make mistakes. When I paint someone else, I feel rushed because they have to sit there for hours. RQ Do you take breaks working on yourself? TS—Once I get started on a paint, time flies and I have no idea what time it is. I get really absorbed. It’s like zen meditation for me. RQ Maybe I’m generalizing, but it seems like more of a feminine art form. Is that fair? TS It is very hard to paint over hair. And it is hard if you have too many wrinkles because the creases in the paint. RQ So, do you use an air brush? TS It’s not an air gun. My shadowing is actually eye shadow. It’s not paint, it’s a powder to help give it a 3D look. RQ And not just some fancy camera trick? TS I don’t know how to use Photoshop. I literally have my Android phone and Instagram— that’s all I use for photos. RQ Has anyone ever poached you to do this professionally? TS No, it’s not something I want to do as a job or career. Everyone needs a hobby and this is my hobby. —Interview condensed.
