In terms of skiing backcountry terrain, there are few people more experienced than Greg Hill. He’s the guy that managed to ski 2 million feet (609,600 meters) of vert in a single year. That tells you that he knows a thing or two about surviving treacherous conditions in the mountains. As the ski season really starts to ramp up here in North America (today is the first day of winter after all!), this video arrives to help us be a bit safer out in the snow. It features Greg’s 7 terrain tricks to help you get up and down the mountain, and come back home in one piece.
