My, what a beautiful website you have...

We’ve updated the website! As our focus has shifted to backcountry guiding over the last few years, our old website (which talked a lot about resort skiing) got a bit out of date.

We’ve tried to set up the new website to do a few things:

  1. Clearly explain what we do. For all those people who have commented that we’re very good at delivering good times in the mountains and very bad at business - we hope this is an improvement.

  2. Introduce our trips to New Zealand. We’ve been skiing and guiding here for years (with local companies) so it’s great to team up with them to offer our own trips.

  3. Set out a bunch of information to help people plan their trips a bit better. Most of the people who end up on our website are looking to get away from the crowds and see a less touristy side of Japan/NZ. Unfortunately a lot of the information on the web doesn’t really help with that plan. Hopefully this makes it a bit easier for people looking to head into the backcountry.

This website overhaul has been done during weather breaks in an otherwise busy New Zealand guiding season, so there are a few bits and pieces that still need to be finished (and no doubt a few typos or broken links). We’ll get to those over the next few storm days. Unless the surf is good. It’s a hard life. In the meantime, we hope you find something useful or interesting and that we’ve done a better job of explaining what we’re about. And if you do find a glaring problem leave us a comment.

See you in the hills!
