In this weeks episode we discussed all things canyoning and white water rafting. And recommended 2 sites to get some great info that include Manawa.com and awe365.com. We talked about where you can do this and what gear you're gonna need!!
We also explored the Portes Du Soleil area, that includes the towns of Morzine, Les Gets, Avoriaz and Chatel on the French side and Champéry, Morgins and Les Crosets on the Swiss side and everything that this superb area ha to offer.
And finally we took you on our bucket list trip to Route to Everest Base Camp itself.
We looked at that trek itself, what you need to do it, what gear you need, and how fit you need to be and exactly what the route looks like...
The journey to Everest Base Camp typically begins with a flight into Lukla Airport also known as Tenzing-Hillary Airport.
From Lukla, trekkers follow the legendary trail known as the Everest Base Camp Trek, which winds through picturesque Sherpa villages to Namche Bazaar (2,860 meters) to Namche Bazaar (3,440 meters), the busy hub of the Khumbu region. This stretch involves crossing suspension bridges over rivers, ascending stone staircases, and passing through dense forests of rhododendron and pine.
Then Acclimatization stops are planned at strategic points such as Namche itself
The next stage is Tengboche (3860) to Dingboche (4,410 meters) and then Lobuche (4,910 meters)
Then Lobuche onwards the final leg to Everest Base Camp (5,364 meters) and involves navigating glacial moraines and rocky terrain.
The Intro and Outro music today was supplied by Rob himself on the guitar singing a Rod Stewart classic.
Our next winter episode will be out on the 4th of October as we now take a break for the summer.

This week we were lucky enough to catch up with Warren Miller Ski Movie star and legend Dan Egan to talk about his most recent trip - Heliskiing in Alaska.
It was fantastic to see the passion and enthusiasm from somebody that has skied pretty much everywhere, in the very best conditions, and yet still he talks like it's his first turns in powder...it's definitely not!
Enjoy the ride :)

Spotlight on Heiligenblut, Carinthia
How do you get to Heiligenblut?
London Stanstead to Klagenfurt with Ryanair
2 hour drive through lovely scenery and then up a long valley where right at the end, you get to Heiligenblut.
Whats the town actually like…
It’s not big it’s really a village so it’s pretty quiet there’s some lovely hotels there including the 4* Kärntnerhof which is where I stayed. The standard of the hotel accommodation is really high and the food was excellent too. It’s very much settle into the hotel territory and enjoy relaxing, it’s not party central.
The skiing
It’s definitely for the more adventurous skier
It’s not a huge resort in terms of the mileage with around 50km’s of marked runs The longest is 10 kilometres
Really good snow record and the village is at 1300 metres and it goes up to 2600 metres
