SCOTLAND 2015 For so many cultures around the world, skiing is a way of expressing themselves and celebrating the mountains. That really hit home in Scotland, where it felt like there wasn’t necessarily a high caliber of skier, but there was a high excitement in the tight Scottish ski culture. Flat slopes, old gear, driving wind (we were told these fences were actually meant to keep snow from totally blowing away)—nothing was going to keep them from making the most of Scottish winter. It didn’t hurt that we got a rare few days of sun at Glencoe Mountain Resort—the perfect way to enjoy a unique ski trip to the Scottish Highlands. The only hitch was our rental car. When writer Matt Coté rolled up to pick us up at the airport, it was pretty obvious the thing could barely hold two people and a pair of shoes, not four adults laden with two weeks of ski gear. We had to do some negotiating to get a proper rig for our trip to the hills. 066 The Ski Journal
