Canadian skiers, snowboarders journey to find world's best snow
Stars post impressive #MountainMonday pics
High-performance athletes spend months of their lives travelling and competing all over the world. Here we share some of the impressive pictures they're posting to social media.
Canadian skiers and snowboarders did their share of travelling this past week, leaving behind their friends, family, and even their teammates.
Cross-country skier Ivan Babikov was struggling to leave the snow globe he calls home to start racing:
Meanwhile, Paralympic cross-country skier Brian McKeever was having the opposite problem:

Tess Critchlow is another snowboarder enjoying the Austrian sights and taking nothing for granted:
Snowboarders aren't the only ones enjoying the Austrian mountains. Canadian alpine team member Mikaela Tommy might be getting a little too comfortable with her surroundings:
Meanwhile, alpine veteran Jan Hudec was relaxing in his own backyard with the French and Italian teams:
Finally, even when taking a break from training, reality star Mark McMorris is a certifiable jet-setter. He recently hit up movie premieres in Milan:
