We were scheduled for five days of skiing as we made our way along three areas of the high Atlas Mountains. After the first day of super variable and not great snow I was a bit worried. Sadly but also good for subsequent days the 2nd day was lost to switching valleys and getting stuck on a mountain pass and had to wait for plows to come from either direction for the rescue. I will say the infrastructure in Morocco was much better than I expected, most of the roads we were on were paved. We had two great, long days of skiing in incredible conditions and also heat (the snow just acted as a big mirror baking us) that bookended another day of continuous snow that led to a short 2hr tour before it got too dangerous to drive.

Ski Lodge – Eastern BC
The snow was so much better than anticipated and got plenty of face shots the first day and then it was bluebird for the rest of the trip. Very fun trip although didn’t get nearly as much vertical as I would like.
Harris Mountains – Heli Skiing
So the good news is the heli was able to fly, the bad news was the snow and light were terrible. Still had some great views and did get a few cloud breaks so could see where we were skiing. Now I can check off skiing in NZ
