An outdoor travel site focused on skiing, trekking, and independent travel across Asia.
I grew up in Vail, Colorado and worked in ski resort PR before moving to South Korea, where I’ve lived since 2007 and used as a base to travel across the region.
This site brings together trips across Asia, including Japan, Korea, Vietnam, Nepal, and Kashmir, with a focus on skiing, trekking, and independent travel.
You’ll find destination guides, trip planning insights, and firsthand accounts from the mountains and trails.
