Note: The live Hangout has come to an end. A recording of the conversation is embedded below.

On Friday, November 15 at 11:00 a.m. MT, we’ll be joined in a live Google+ Hangout by skier Thomas Hlawitschka and photographer Pally Learmond, who teamed up to produce the image that’s featured on the cover of our 2014 Backcountry Issue.

During the Hangout, we’ll speak with the duo about their 2012/13 season highlights, the winter ahead, the latest re: Legs of Steel, and we’ll share the cover image publicly for the first time. Additionally, we will provide a brief run down of the magazine’s contents.

The live Hangout will be featured here on this page. For those who wish to post questions for Thomas and/or Pally, feel free to do so in the comments section below.
