White Planet Book - REVIEW

Leslie Anthony needs little introduction. As the long-standing editor and writer for Powder Magazine, Creative Director for Skier magazine and contributor to Equinox and Explore magazines (among many others) for the past 21 years, he has been an integral voice in the evolution of the modern skier and of the locations where the deepest, driest snow falls in absurd depths. An award-winning author, poet and journalist, Anthony has become something of a cultural icon in the skiing world.

In White Planet (Greystone Books), Anthony encapsulates decades of world travel in search of deep powder skiing and a seemingly ephemeral yet surprisingly homogenous ski culture. The book largely draws from his many escapades as a correspondent for magazines, delving into the landscapes, characters and finicky weather patterns that define this global tribe dedicated to sliding on snow.
