Request to Book
The Banff First Chair Ski Adventure is one of those trips of a lifetime where you spend your days crushing Alberta white gold in the Canadian Rockies and your evenings filled with the best après activities. They scout each trip location for outstanding accommodations and restaurants to make certain you have the best possible experience - riding and living like the locals. Don’t miss out on this Canadian Pow Fest!
Mike owns and operates First Chair Travel Co. Born and raised in Rome NY, Mike made his first turns by the age of two, and had an affinity for the mountains ever since. Growing up, the O’Connell family spent every weekend ski racing at Gore Mountain, which only made Mike’s passion for skiing grow.
Now based in the greater Boston area, Mike travels throughout Canada and the United States in search of the best big mountain skiing in North America. He personally scouts each trip location for outstanding accommodations and restaurants to ensure guests have the best possible experience - riding and living like the locals.
When he’s not traveling, you can find Mike skiing in New Hampshire and Vermont with his two boys.
