When attorney Ben Leoni isn’t working in an office in Portland, Maine, he’s getting after it in any number of the bountiful backcountry zones that the Northeast provides. In this episode of Ski The East’s Working for the Weekend series, filmed during the 2015-16 season, Leoni and friends Louise Lintilhac, Paige Fitzgerald and Nick Martin embark on a 10-day trip to the Chic-Choc range in Quebec, Canada. The range, averaging of 20-feet of snow a season and offering up 1,200 vertical-foot runs, is a place that everyone should experience. Learn how to get out there yourself, below.
