The Caucasus Mountains in Georgia are a secret magnet for skiers willing to go the distance. The mountains are reminiscent of Alaskas, the snow is supposedly better than Japans, and the crowds are totally nonexistent.
Thats what drew Nikolai Schirmer, Lucas Wachs, and Sam Favret so far off the beaten path. In ChaCha Land, these three pro skiers head to the land beyond the Black Sea to see just how rad their skiing is.
Spoiler: The skiing is almost as insane as the adventure getting there.
From broken-down cats to abandoned ski villages, avalanches, impassable roads, and more ChaCha than you can shake a ski pole at, the journey presented plenty of challenges. But the reward was skiing in a dreamland — a place few Westerners even realize you can shred. ChaCha Land documents the three skiers experience traveling to the far ends of Eastern Europe in search of slopes, fresh powder, and first tracks.
