March 22, 2022 by braveskimom

An interview with Brave Ski Dad Peter Galante, a American father of three living in Tokyo, with input from his wife Lynn, sons Peter Z, Gabriel, and Leonardo, on family skiing at Niseko, Japan. If you could only ski at one resort this season with your family, which resort would you choose?   Our family […]

Remote Ski Areas Where You Can Get Away From Crowds And Your Cares

lost trail powder mountain

When I originally wrote this in March 2020, the pandemic was barely a pandemic, and Colorado’s governor hadn’t yet shut down the ski resorts. By the time I was ready to publish, skiing had abruptly ended for the season and this post was shelved. Two years on, I think it’s still relevant, although maybe for […]

#CannonIsMine: New Hampshire Family Skiing at its Finest

December 1, 2020 by braveskimom

I Shut Down Siri. I Rejected Alexa. But I Embrace Emma.

February 27, 2020 by braveskimom

Have you met Emma? Emma is Vail Resort’s Epic Mountain Assistant, a texting service that allows users to get immediate mountain information including chairlift wait times, snow reports, grooming, parking 411 and more. I recently used Emma to check chairlift waiting times in Vail while on the mountain. Why? So that I could avoid the […]
