On the flattest and driest-inhabited continent on Earth, the unimaginable materialises each southern hemisphere winter. Powerful, low pressure systems spiral in from Antarctica, unleashing blizzards across a modest but beautiful arc of mountains: the Australian Alps. They accrue an ever-deepening blanket of snowy, blustery white. On a continent known more for its scorching temperatures and deserts, winter snow in the Australian Alps may be fleeting but its beauty is unforgettable.
'Winter Dreaming' captures the essence and characters of backcountry skiing—fluid, boundless and enticing—as magical snow-storms grace a timeless, snowy canvas. 'Winter Dreaming' unveils stories and an ephemeral beauty told through backcountry skiing in a landscape rarely seen or understood by an international audience—let alone by most Australians. Just as spring thaws winter's mantle, 'Winter Dreaming' will leave you with a series of beautiful, graceful moments gently imbued on one's mind, long after the the winter snow has disappeared.
