A Ski Safari Relic
Joining in 2003, Rupert has spent over 20 great years with Ski Safari.
Skier or snowboarder
Most definitely a skier...
Ski/ boarding history
I lived the dream and spent years doing ski seasons - 11 in total - if you can't ski after that then there is something wrong - over 1700 ski days total so far!
Favourite ski safari
Rockies Loop - an epic adventure to some of my favourite resorts including Kicking Horse, Revelstoke, Banff, Lake Louise and Panorama.
Best mountain moment
Seeing my kids (Betsy, Tom and Tess) on snow for the first time - they definetly have the moves!
Last resorts visited
Next trip
Palisade Tahoe in the USA.
Interesting fact
During the pandemic, I did Just Eat food deliveries...
Top ski trip recommendation
Whether you're a skier or boarder, get your own gear - a bit of a hassle but so worth it.
