Release Date: 2009
A very funny and powerful satire which explores the enormous changes to Austria's alpine region, the Tyrol, over recent decades. It juxtaposes images from two different worlds - the traditional rural Austria and the consumer-driven culture of now. Wonderful ironies abound, yet despite the humour that underlies them, there are chilling implications for the region and the sustainability of the natural landscape and the social traditions.
Where to Ski
Covering more than 500 ski resorts in Europe, North America and elsewhere, this guide includes summaries of the pros and cons of each resort, and ratings of key aspects. There are also street-plans of the villages and towns, and piste maps, as well as features on ski safety and new equipment.
Scottish Offpiste Skiing & Snowboarding: Nevis Range and Ben
This Scottish offpiste guidebook focuses on the amazing terrain in the mountains around Ben Nevis and Nevis Range. It unlocks the potential to some of Scotland's best backcountry skiing with snow filled powder bowls, exciting corniced gullies, open faces, and narrow and twisting hidden couloirs. Inside you will find easy freeride routes in the Back Corries, challenging hidden couloirs on Aonach Beag and Aonach Mor's fabled west face, and step and daring descents on the north face of Ben Nevis.
