Once again, the summer has begun to slip away. While some people dread this time of year, we know that you, dear reader, get an intangible excitement as the leaves turn from green to gold. Grabbing your favorite hoodie from its warm-weather resting place, feeling that chill in the evening air, longingly looking at your skis as they stand in the corner of your garage… all these signs and more can only mean one thing – ski movie season has arrived.
