    You heard wrong. Dry cold, dry snow.

    Cold this season, between -5C and -15 C.

    Bring layers and down.

    Another fantastic day with Ian.

    Sunshine, no wind, and powder all day.

    MONDAY 18 JANUARY 2016

    Well that's a wrap.

    A short but very sweet season on Fantasy Island.

    37 days on snow, 641 cm of snow at Kiroro Resort in my 47 days on the island and it's supposed to be the worst season in almost two decades.

    Massive improvement from all my students, and John one trip closer to skiing at 90!

    Thanks to everyone who made my time so enjoyable.

    And I got to ski the deepest snow of my life last weekend. Here's a taste of the day.

    Gimme All Your Love




    Hope everyone who's on Fantasy Island / is visiting Fantasy Island this winter is as lucky as I've been.
