I was very fortunate to be on this production based out of Erciyes Resort, Central Anatolia, Türkiye with filming also taking place in the 6,000 year old Silk Road city of Kayseri and the otherworldly landscape of the UNESCO World Heritage Site Cappadocia.
I first visited this area with Jonny Richards (wiigman) in December 2022 for a story for Fall Line Skiing magazine
I met Dan when we were both presenting at the National Snow Show in Birmingham, UK.
I was ‘Talking Turkey’ as part of The Ski Podcast panel discussion on alternative winter sport destinations, a trip organised by Erdem Kurt from Ski Turkish.
Dan was there talking about his life in skiing on the release of his book ‘30 Years In A White Haze’.
I watched his presentation as a longtime fan and asked him to sign a copy of his book unaware that a few years later I’d be living and reliving his Turkish Odyssey.
After reading his book I saw he’d been to the resort and area I’d just returned from and I messaged him to see if he would be interested in doing a ‘Then & Now’ piece for print & film.
Dan has made no secret of the fact that his trip to Türkiye in 1991 to film for the 1992 Warren Miller ski movie 'Steeper and Deeper' was his most enjoyable, and he immediately said let’s do it.
My YouTube feed is inundated with ski movies at the moment, and it's fantastic!
Cheers
It’ll be very different from the vast majority out there

Had half an eye on it as was still at work for the live stream . Will watch it again later but at least added to the live audience numbers. Also got someone at work who skis to get interested in Dan Egan on the back of it.

Well, that's Turkey added to my destination wishlist!
I didn't manage to watch live, but caught it a couple of hours later.
Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?
