    Hello!

    Andrew McLean’s base camp Tv series is by far the best magazine produced educational content I have ever seen! Perfect length, good subjects, and a major benefit – the man’s humor and that you had the good judgment to let it be! More of it, please!

    Greetings,

    John

    “steep skiing isn’t a smart thing to do anyway, so don’t make it worse by overthinking it.”

    LoL!

  3. Wow. I love your moves. I am no expert in skiing but I want to learn. Thanks for sharing this.
