Ben Taylor

Ben grew up in Bristol, England, far from the French mountains he now calls home. He discovered his love for the outdoors in his mid-twenties and decided that the mountains were where he wanted to be. He packed everything up into his van and moved to the French Alps to dedicate himself to becoming a ski instructor and sharing his love of the mountains with others.

Since learning how to ski at twenty-six, Ben has qualified as a Level 4 BASI Ski Instructor. When he isn’t scouting new couloirs to ski in the mountains of Savoie, Ben spends his free time showing newcomers to the area how to responsibly enjoy the backcountry terrain.

In recent years, Ben has had the opportunity to experience life on the water, and has gotten hooked. When he’s not mountain biking, skiing, or climbing, you can find Ben cooking up a new adventure to go on.
