In a special winter sports edition, Dougie Vipond and team join four of Scotland’s backcountry skiers and, proving you don’t need to be a top athlete, get expert advice on how to leave the pistes behind.

We discover the joys of touring with a snowboard and how to stay safe in the hills. However, it’s not all about the white stuff - blind adventurer Dean Dunbar tries the new sport of wing foil boarding, and we journey to discover the most isolated spot on the Scottish mainland. This episode also features inspirational walks, scrambles, and mountain biking from the edge of the city to the mountain tops.
