Ep 116 - Early Off Piste Lesson - Gregg Kavet
What is it like to see a pair of skis on a glacier with no one around? What is it like to hear someone’s hoarse and terrified voice deep inside a crevasse screaming up at you? Gregg Kavet knows first hand. Gregg has lots of learnings from this incident in this episode. The classic objective learnings, of course, as well as how this experience shaped his parenting style with his own boys. He reflects on how to discuss threatening environments with his kids and how to describe the risk his kids take can affect their future. Tune in to hear the full account.
