A HUGE THANK YOU TO EVERYONE WHO COMPLETED OUR SURVEY
Thanks to the hundreds of clients who answered our call out to complete our recent online survery.  A few stats from your feedback:
  • 54% of respondents indicated that once safe and accessible international air travel resumes, they'd be happy to book a ski holiday next season. 
  • Top five Canadian ski resorts on our clients bucket list - Big White, Whistler, Sun Peaks, Lake Louise, Revelstoke 
  • Top three must-have's for accommodation are: self-contained, ski-in, ski-out access, and village access.  We agree!
Congratulations to our survey winner —  Gabrielle Brock from NSW, Aust. She has won a $250 Kathmandu voucher.

When we broke the great news to her, she said: "Really? I never win anything!! Unfortunately our lodge wouldn’t open this season, so no skiing for us but we’re keen for 6 weeks in Canada in Dec/Jan 2021-2022".  When we quizzed her a bit more, she shared —  "Our favourite resort in Canada is Fernie but we also had a great trip to Sun Peaks and when our daughter was small, back to back trips to Big White. Jackson Hole last year was also amazing. The post COVID plan is 6 weeks in Canada hopefully, going to Fernie, Panorama & Big White. " 

Thanks to everyone who took time to complete our survey. Your feedback is invaluable in shaping our future services, packages and travel advice.

Sadly the Victorian ski season came to an early and abrupt end, earlier this month, with Victoria' Stage 3 COVID-19 restrictions brought into force.  Better news however, for our NSW resort mates, with all resorts open and operating under their COVID-safe protocols. As well, Mother Nature was kind this week, dumping welcome snow across the NSW Snowy Mountains. Our ski resort partners across Canada and the USA are closely monitoring the southern hemisphere ski season, to learn from the experience and integrate best practice experiences. We will keep you posted on decisions as we hear more.  Photo credit: Mt Hotham
