On Being Light is Chapter 8 of Snowbird Secrets, a unique guide to self-discovery as revealed in 22 chapters about the spiritual side of big mountain skiing. Written by "Guru" Dave Powers and Jackson Hogen, Snowbird Secrets is part instruction manual, part guide to self-discovery. As Mike Rogan, the undisputed master of technical skiing, wrote about Snowbird Secrets, "You will not be a complete Alpine Slider until you finish this book."
