Episode notes

Are you busy child-rearing, working, running around for kids sport or caring for someone? Would you like to go skiing or snowboarding but feel it's too late, you should have done it years ago? Colleen Glenn is a keen back country skier from Brisbane, Australia. She talks about how she got into 'back country skiing' after raising kids with busy schedules despite working a full time job and living nowhere near the snow. She discusses how she chooses her next ski destination, ski gear, ski companies or finds ski buddies and how she skis up to 6 weeks a year whilst honouring family responsibilities. The juggle is real. But if you think you've left it too late to enjoy a 'snow life' , listen in. If you like the idea of skiing 'back country', away from chairlifts and crowds, skins strapped under skis walking vertically up a mountain to ski down enjoying the views, listen in. You may leave inspired and a little more determined to get there at any age.
