Description

This book comes from a parallel universe where everyone is friends on a powder day. A utopia where it makes perfect sense to be hopelessly addicted to something that falls out of the sky. A world where the truth never stands in the way of a good line…There is only one suitable backdrop for the titanic trials and triumphs of the ski-bum lifestyle: a curated collection of the world’s best ski photography.

This is Ski Bum: shocking tales from the interplanetary snow bohemians and dedicated powder fiends propping up the bar in your local ski resort. Their stories veer between the most profound of human experiences and soap opera with skis on. This is the tragicomedy of life above the snowline: sex, death, and drama – all while praying for powder.

From the team behind The Story of New Zealand Free skiing. All profits to Edenprojects.org to reforest Madagascar.
