The boys from Salomon Freeski hit New Zealand’s Mt Tongariro National Park last winter. This is what happened.

You don’t mess with Mt Ruapehu, an active volcano that is home to Turoa and Whakapapa ski fields on the North Island of New Zealand. Mt Ruapehu and the sacred land around dictates the ebb and flow of your ski or snowboard trip. Don’t think otherwise.
