The snow is finally falling in the Cascade Mountains, meaning it’s high time to get going on those winter adventures. On this week’s episode of Peak Northwest, we’re joined by former co-host Jim Ryan, who discusses a pair of exciting ski trips on his horizon this winter: a trek to the Tilly Jane A-Frame on Mount Hood and a vacation to the slopes of Banff National Park in Canada. Ryan, a lifelong snow enthusiast, gets into everything from flying with skis to convincing skeptical friends to join up on a magical ice-skating experience. Here’s the full episode: The Tilly Jane A-Frame offers a different kind of way to spend the night in a snowy forest. Canada’s Banff is a beautiful national park and resort town with a lot to offer winter visitors. Flying with ski gear presents a host of possible complications. Why you shouldn’t be too disappointed (yet) about the weak snowfall this season. Subscribe to Peak Northwest on Apple Podcasts, Google Podcasts, Spotify or anywhere you listen to podcasts.
