As you know we are both intensely pragmatic and also taking part in the #waronwaste. In that spirit, if you would like to get us a gift (NB there is no expectation but we’ve had lots of requests for ideas), below are some items and experiences that would enable us to do more of the activities we love the most, with a focus on safety. A few things are snow-moon activities such a back country snowboarding course and an NBA game, and most are to set us up for a lifetime of winter adventures in the Victorian alps and beyond (winter tent and heavy duty sleeping bags, avalanche safety course etc…) We’ve listed the items and their price point instead of asking for the items themselves because we can pick them up in the US for cheaper than in Aus when we are there in March. The way this site works if that you select what you’d like to gift us or gift money towards and it then shows how much is left – you aren’t charged any fees and no one else can see what’s been gifted by you. Of course if you had something else in mind please don’t think this is an exclusive list!

Avalanche Beacons - so we can be found in the event of an avalanche when we are snowboarding in the backcountry, which will prevent death.
