synopsis
Join Jackie, Mark and The Pawsome Foursome in legendary powder, where you will learn a multitude of invaluable lessons about skiing, winter walkies, the revenge of the snow chains, surviving a Viking invasion, and how to remove snow balls from the belly of a dog.
In northern Italy’s Aosta Valley, Monte Rosa is little-known resort tucked under the second highest peak in Western Europe. One ski magazine placed Monte Rosa in ‘The Top 5 Off Piste Destinations In The World.’
With parables from on piste and off, Pups on Piste tells of the author’s own skiing journey – from tears on a blue run to fully fledged off piste powder chick. It also recounts how they get lost, stranded, conduct experiments on the edge of control and take a Back-Country Ski Course in which one instructor’s advice is, “Don’t miss the turn or you’ll go over a cliff.”
