Mountainwatch has partnered with The North Face to present backcountry/freeride “Discover Freeride” camps in Queenstown hosted by Australian snowboarder and World Freeride Tour athlete Michaela Davis-Meehan.

The camp is for both skiers and snowboarders and Michaela will be joined by Kiwi Freeride World Tour Skier Blake Marshall and members of The North Face New Zealand pro team. If you’re keen to explore freeriding and experience the southern alps backcountry, this is a camp you don’t want to miss.  Reggae Elliss caught up with Michaela in Thredbo last week to find out what the Discover Freeride camps are all about.

“I’m super excited to run the camps and the chance to get people into freeriding,” said Michaela. “The camp is for intermediate and advanced riders – I want to show them what it is all about. I’m super stoked we’ve got skiers and snowboarders – it will create the atmosphere and vibe of the world tour.”
