About the Author
Flip Byrnes is a multi-award-winning journalist whoβs slid on every continent writing lines from Courchevel to Kashmir, Russia to Romania, Quebec to Queenstown. A lifelong snow industry career has included working as an instructor, ski journalist, in ski area marketing departments and being an expeditioner whose lived in the French Alps, Colorado in the US and Australia's Snowy Mountains. Sheβs equally happy snowboarding, skiing or split-boarding, but as the great granddaughter of Antarctic explorer and photographer Frank Hurley (of Shackletonβs Endurance expedition) has a special thing for polar places, cemented when kite-skiing halfway across Greenland. She divides her time between Europe and Australia with her UIAGM mountain guide husband and two mini mountain mad girls, and would do almost anything for raclette.Β Follow Flip on @theavdenturemamma.
