Salomon’s Visit to a Cold War Russian Hideout
By Rocky Thompson on November 21st, 2012Salomon’s latest Freeski film is brilliant: they ride at the Arkhyz Gosdacha, a hideout for leaders of the Soviet Union during the Cold War. It sits in a remote river valley on the north side of Russia’s Caucasus Mountains. Plenty of untracked powder and lavish digs, just don’t touch the red phones.
