A Ski Safari Relic

Joining in 2003, this year will mark 20 great years with Ski Safari.

Skier or snowboarder

Most definitely a skier...

Ski/ boarding history

I lived the dream and spent years doing ski seasons - 11 in total - if you can't ski after that then there is something wrong - over 1700 ski days total so far!

Favourite ski safari

Rockies Loop - an epic adventure to some of my favourite resorts including Kicking Horse, Revelstoke, Banff, Lake Louise and Panorama.

Best mountain moment

Seeing my kids (Betsy, Tom and Tess) on snow for the first time - they definetly have the moves!

Last resorts visited

Norefjell in Norway.

Next trip

Palisade Tahoe in the USA.

Interesting fact

During the pandemic, I did Just Eat food deliveries...

Top ski trip recommendation

Whether a skier or boarder then get your own gear - a bit of a hassle but so worth it.
