  • Love the podcast

    I was listening to the episode with Krister Kopala, and the Norwegian facts are pretty spot on šŸ˜† Would love to hear a bit more about the decision making process regarding avalanche risk and problems. Not how to do it but more of the thoughts around snow testing and reading the terrain and so on.

    But a great podcast šŸ‘šŸ» will listen to these winter episodes 🤩

  • Great Concept - Fab Guests

    I came across this podcast while looking for somewhat relevant and informative content to listen to whilst wandering the hills (and driving to work!).

    I don’t think I’ve ever blitzed so many episodes of a show in such a short time - great work Ashley!
