Innsbruck, Austria: A city in a ski resort in the heart of the Alps

Finding clarity on the hills with Oakley

For our season finale of Head for the Hills, Glenn Crouter and Dave Trafford are again joined by Stefan Cott, Ontario Regional Sales Manager for Oakley. They chat more about Oakley's PRIZM lense technology, what to factor in when buying goggles (including the "geometry" of your head), and how the right fit with the right type of lense can make all the difference in safety and performance. They also explore, whether you're skiing in Ontario or competing in the Tour de France, why you don't always want polarized lenses. Head for the Hills is sponsored by our friends at ewool.

Live and play all year round at Horseshoe Valley

This week on Head for the Hills, Glenn Crouter and Dave Trafford are back home in Canada to sit down with Jonathan Reid (aka 'JR'), GM of Horseshoe Valley Resort and VP of Freed Hotels & Resorts. They chat about what goes into Horseshoe Valley's "secret sauce" for success, including major investments into the 'science' of making snow, and making it quickly. They run down the list of other things to do there if you want to take a break from the slopes (snow tubing or fat biking, anyone?), before JR then reveals why many of the world's best skiers and snowboarders will be spending time in Horseshoe Valley all throughout March.

On this week's Head for the Hills, we stay in Austria with Glenn Crouter and Dave Trafford where they're joined by Alexandra Sasse, Marketing Manager for Innsbruck Tourism.

You'll never ski the same trail twice in Lech Zürs

This week on Head for the Hills, we head to Austria with Glenn Crouter and Dave Trafford to speak with Victoria Schneider, Press & Communication for Lech Zürs Tourism. They chat about what makes them the largest connected ski area in Austria (and 5th largest in the world), why skiing down Austrian slopes is more of an experience than just going up and down, and what else they offer to provide that year-round "second home" experience.
