FORECAST ISSUE 5.2 PREVIEW

With some welcomed snow beginning to blanket them thar hills, and ski movies premieres galore getting you stoked for the season, it’s time for a look at the second issue of volume five of Forecast, which is currently available in ski shops and on newsstands across Canada.

First thing first, as always, is the cover, which showcases Josh Daiek going off the deep end in the Lake Tahoe, California backcountry, as shot by the talented Ming Poon.

Here’s a preview of what’s inside…

2020 OUTERWEAR GUIDE
Being cold and wet sucks, regardless of the time of year. But in the winter, it can prompt even the best of us to make a premature break for the hot tub on a pow day. Fear not, though, Forecast’s 2020 Outerwear Guide will shine a light on the best ways to stay warm and dry—until last chair.
