Its August - Let's Head South 25:27

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.
