The remote birch glades.

The wish-list of skiing:

Heli-skiing in the steep and rugged terrain,

and in the backcountry, touring in alpine bowls.


The rowdy ski resorts.

Moody, low-angle polar sunshine,

and early morning tracks.


You ski snowy peaks,

a vast network of slopes.

A fresh sprinkle of snow can get you out into the cold. 


Dropped flakes fly,

and slopes freshly created.

Deep powder turns:

things look up for going downhill.


The hotel’s in-room fire,

the cheese-and-charcuterie platter.

At night, the Northern lights fly,

while slopes are freshly groomed.
