Heading North

Co-Host Richard Wiese visits Killington Resort in Vermont for women’s World Cup skiing, a two-day event that draws over 40,000 spectators. Richard chats with Olympic gold medalist Diann Roffe about the next generation of skiers, and also meets up with Willy Booker, the head of Burke Mountain Academy, whose students have included reigning World Cup champion Mikaela Shiffrin. Then Richard takes the gondola to the top of the mountain, where he chats with former Olympic skier Edie Thys Morgan about what it’s like to race at a World Cup.
