In my many years of skiing, the question I'm asked most is "Where should I go to Ski"? There are so many ski resorts with so many personalities, this podcast is to let you answer that question . Listening to ski legend guests passionately discuss where they work, live and play is amazing. From how to ski the mountain, to the best runs, to where to learn or to best restaurants and apres, they know their areas. "It's not all about sliding down a hill" "Sometimes it's about that ONE RUN" are some of the insights they bring. So join us as we explore Where to Ski

    A Mission in the Eagle Valley - Vail with Chris Anthony

    Eagle Valley - Vail Perhaps the best known of American ski resorts, Vail is about 100 miles due west of Denver. Envisioned by Pete Siebert of the 10th Mountain Division, the mountain opened in December 1962. Today there is some of the best skiing on the planet on over 5,317 acres served by 32 lifts and 278 trails. My guest today is a legend – literally - we are pleased to have Chris Anthony join us. His love and passion for the sport is real and he skis 5-6 days a week on this hill. Aside from working at Vail Mountain for 38 years, in 2018, Chris was inducted into the Colorado Snowsports Hall of Fame and has since been inducted into the United States Army 10th Mt. Div Warrior Legend Hall of Fame. My Favs Best Runs - This is a hard call and really depends on the weather and grooming - Prima, Riva and Northstar on the front. Siberia Bowl on the back Restaurants - Pepis in Vail Village for the Austria flavor and fun. The Minturn Saloon in Minturn for the Margs and Mexican Find Chris

    The Top of the World in Switzerland with Ryan Regez (Video episode)

    I've wanted to do this episode for a while. The Bernese Oberland is like stepping into a picture postcard with the small villages of Wengen, Murren and Grindlewald hosting some amazing skiing. All with the famed Eiger as the backdrop. Our guest is Olympic Gold Medalist Ryan Regez, Ryan grew up in Wengen, has Swiss-British dual citizenship, is a member of the Wengen ski club and is a very fun guest. Our Favs Hotel - Arenas Victoria-Lauberhorn - it's close to the train and the Manlichen tram, has great views and has a good breakfast Dinner - the Eiger - the food is good, traditional Swiss - yes they have fondue and more. Oh yeah, its also reasonable in price. Apres - The Pickle Bar in Wengen or the Hutte in Kleine Scheigegg Favorite Run - the run under the WIXI lift

    Its August - Let's Head South

    There is a ton of skiing right now in August.  But – where to Ski?  I’m not excited about skiing in lanes on a glacier in between racers and I certainly wasn’t going to try one of the indoor hockey rinks designed for slalom skiers.    We take a look where its actually winter . In Australia there is Threadbo and Perisher; New Zealand has Coronet Peak and Mt Hutt; Chile has Portillo, La Parva, Valle Nevados, and Argentina has the Barriloche area, Las Lenas, Cerro Castor – and that’s just the tip of the resort iceberg.       So, I reached out to a friend who grew up and worked at multiple places south of the equator to bring some sense to my growing list.  Grab your skis, let’s jump on a plane and head south.   I’m thrilled to welcome Barney Caddick back to our show, you might remember him from our Arlberg episode.  Barney is a senior guide and owner of Ski Like a Pro in St Anton, Austria.  With 38 seasons of teaching and guiding on 4 continents, Barney has seen it all.  He started his own ski journey in Australia and has spent summers teaching and guiding in Chile, Argentina, and in his home country of Australia.   Resources:   Find Barney at Ski Like a Pro   Ski Weather and snow reports – OpenSnow

    Tucked into the end of a box canyon in Little Cottonwood Canyon in the Wasatch Mountains of Utah; Alta is known for steep chutes and deep powder - an old-style ski town focused on the skiing and the people who ski there. Scott Urtel has guided for Wasatch Powderbirds, and for Ski with Kim for a decade. He is currently the lead training officer for the Alta Ski Patrol, and skis this mountain pretty much every day of the season.

    Skiing and Science - a bonus episode on Weather Planning our conversation with Joel Gratz

    In this bonus episode we hit on one of my favorite subjects – mountain weather.  Nothing worse than planning a trip, getting somewhere, and getting weathered out – either rain, too little snow or even too much snow can affect your day. Weather has a lot to do with my own decision-making process of where to ski. Our guest is Joel Gratz, Founder and CEO of OpenSnow.  Joel really (really) likes three things: Weather, snow, and skiing. I don't know about the skiing but he really knows weather and snow. Listen to this fun and informative conversation we had with Joel. Contact Joel www.opensnow.com
