Sam returns from a week of skiing in Austria in an episode packed with stories from his trip!

We explore the differences between skiing and snowboarding, the importance of confidence on the slopes, and the impact of weather conditions on skiing experiences. And, we discuss chalets versus hotels while skiing. Finally, we answer a listener's question about who is trying to decide on owning versus renting skis, weighing the costs and benefits of each option.

Each week, join our hosts Joel and Sam on the Lift Pass Skiing and Snowboarding podcast as they share their mountain stories, travel tips, trends, or the latest snow conditions.
