Himalayas, Nepal
The Himalayas isn’t just about Everest. The Gulmarg region is popular with skiers and snowboarders looking for a slightly more off-the-beaten-track backcountry adventure.
It’s isolated, there are no big fancy hotels or shopping centres. It’s pure mountain life, living, eating, sleeping in tents before tackling steep descents on Mt. Apharwat.
Free Ski Himalayas do some great packages, whether it’s ski touring or heli skiing in the manner of Warren Miller.
If you want some inspiration, take a look at Jeremy Jones’ expedition to the Himalayas last year as part of his film, Higher.
