Congrats Scott Turnbull – winning photograph.

Congratulations to Scott Turnbull, the winner of the Ski Telemark photo contest.

After years of lamenting the lack of mountains in Ontario, photographer Scott Turnbull stopped complaining and started touring the hills close to home, finding the same joy in a 200-vertical-foot lap as you can in 2000 feet.

After one visit to the Limberlost ski hill near Huntsville, ON a few years ago, Scott quickly fell in with the burgeoning community of like-minded turn enthusiasts which has transformed into the West Wind Highlands Ski Touring Association (WWHSTA).
