📱 eBook en inglés Tartan Snow

If you can ski in Scotland, you can ski anywhere.

Scotlands mountains are tough, its winters unpredictable, and its ski resorts have endured a remarkable rollercoaster of boom, mismanagement, and scandal. From the Alps of Britain at Cairngorm and Aviemore to lesser-known slopes that somehow thrive, this is the story of a winter sport surviving against all odds.

For over fifty years, Andrew Hubert has skied these slopes, witnessing first-hand the triumphs and disasters that have shaped the skiing industry in Scotland. He has made an annual pilgrimage to Scotlands unreliable pistes, infected by the sheer barmy enthusiasm of some of the toughest skiers and snowboarders in the world. Some resorts with the most money fail, while scrappy underdogs flourish. The question is why?

Discover what has really being going on in the icy world of Scottish skiing. Meet the skiers addicted to the thrill of the ride, who defy the weather, politics or plain bad luck. Tartan Snow traverses the slopes to take you behind the scenes to uncover the untold and true history of skiing in Scotland – part history, part exposé, and ultimately a love letter to the Scottish slopes and the extraordinary people who keep it alive.
