Winter Is Coming...

Winter is still over 2 months away but I’m already excited.

I LOVE cold places. I often catch myself day dreaming of snow, mountains, lakes and frozen forests.

These are some of my favourite images from adventures to cold places.

Out the back of a small set of trees at the peak of Iwatake mountain is a bakery with a deck off the side of the ski resort. This is the view from that deck while I enjoyed my coffee and cinnamon scroll.

Zac and I hiking up Lotte Arai Hokkaido before one of the best runs of our life.

Outside a small burger joint in the Hakuba lives a converted old school bus where you can enjoy a beer and a burger after a day on the slopes. Pitvipers, beers, snowboarding 🏂

One of my favourite days boarding was actually on a day of average snow. We hit the park and I set up one of the jumps. Once the park rats worked out that that dude standing on the side of the jump was holding a camera… they began to send it. This guy was super cool.

The open plains in between the mountains of the Mt Cook, Aoraki area New Zealand. We wish we were going on that chopper.

White out in back country Hokkaido Japan.

You can find a vending machine on almost every street in Japan.

Horse riding in Glenorchy New Zealand is up there with one of my favourite experiences. Also Glenorchy is one of my favourite places to visit. It feels like your in last settlement on the edge of the world. It is absolutely gorgeous.
