Ross HewittRoss Hewitt learned to ski in the Scottish Highlands but was drawn to the steeps of Chamonix, France, as a teenager. Chamonix later became his adopted home, where he works as an IFMGA Mountain Guide and professional skier. Ross loves how skiing offers the ability to travel light and fast through the mountains in technical terrain, using a cocktail of mental, technical and physical abilities. The massive Himalayan Brenva and West faces of Mont Blanc have caught his attention in recent years, enabling him to add to a list of first descents on Canada’s Baffin Island, and in Norway and New Zealand.
