Heliskiing in Russia with Salomon Freeski TV

Salomon Freeski TV keeps getting better and better this season. Each episode is so different from the previous. In Episode 4 of Season 6 Mike Douglas, Mark Abma and Kaj Zackrisson find themselves in Russia's Caucasus Mountains at a remote location called Arkhyz Gosdacha (Архыз Госдача). As the video will tell you, this is the secret base where Russian leaders would retreat to during the Cold War and it is apparently the place where the deal was done to unite Germany once again.

Things have changed in this pocket of Russia in that skiers have discovered what has been there through revolutions, wars, conflicts, famines and feast: Incredible and seemingly endless mountains. And the Salomon Freeski TV team makes the most of them with the help of Heliaction.ru

Enjoy.
