Named after the condition of fresh snow tightly compressing (as opposed to the oft sought after soft, powdery kind), Hard Pack is a new skiing title aiming to 'uncover and promote alternative ways to think about skiing, both new and forgotten.' It's an ethos that translates well through the sophisticatedly designed (and almost snow-hued) pages of this niche but necessary, fashion-meets-slopes title. All pairing well with the rather cinematic, alpine photography. Issue #4 of Hard Pack is guest edited by freeskier Cole Richardson. Featuring conversations and interviews with Sean Pettit, Nico Porteous, Ferdinand Dahl, James Woods, and Øystein Bråten. hardpackmagazine.com
