Since the world came to a standstill back in mid-March, we’ve been taking a lot of time to reflect on why travel is so important to us as human beings in the first place. For skiers and riders, the “reasons why” run a wide gamut. From favorite mountainside restaurants that treat you like family to experiencing new slopes with old friends, the mountains are a place we all dream of visiting again soon.

Of all those dreams, we’ve focused on a few of our favorite as they concern traveling in the mountains. Similarly, we encourage everyone to take advantage of this downtime to remember why: why we get excited at the thought of packing a ski bag, why our hair stands on end when the wheels of a jet touchdown on the runway, and most of all, why our soul feels replenished when we visit the mountains.
