In 2022, we decided to unlock another untouched freeride paradise. Having scouted this terrain years ago, we knew it held incredible potential. Today, it offers an exceptional mix of pristine tree skiing, wide open alpine bowls, and legendary snow volumes. To protect this hidden gem from crowds and copycats, we intentionally keep it off the beaten path.

 

This unmatched exclusivity comes with an authentic adventure: a demanding journey, a truly remote setting, and very rustic, basic cabin life. It is a rewarding challenge for those seeking the ultimate, unspoiled powder experience.

 

As our unique concept inevitably attracts outside followers, we have increased our capacity to four groups last winter. This strategy contributed to us being alone in this high valley again last winter. and move allows us to prioritize our core community of experienced freeriders.

 

Make no mistake—Project X is a raw adventure. The location is deeply remote, the access is tough, and the accommodation is strictly backcountry-basic. It is essential that anyone booking Project X is fully aware of these conditions.

Our Project X basecamp began in 2022 with a double cabin built below the tree line, offering an open yet wind- and avalanche-safe setting. In the summer of 2025, we added a temporary cabin in a beautiful forest clearing.
These rustic cabins offer a cozy living and dining space. The bedrooms feature bunk beds for two to four riders, hosting a total of four groups across the property. Although the layout is basic and shares a limited number of bathrooms (each with a shower, toilet, and sink), we ensure a welcoming level of comfort, including an outdoor sauna cabin.
Project X is a return to our roots—it's all about the powder skiing. 

Alignment

Deep in the backcountry, adventure and unpredictability go hand in hand. To get the most out of this trip, riders should be familiar with the logistics of regions like the Balkans or Central Asia and come prepared for unexpected challenges. This flexibility applies to both the journey to the destination and the stay at the cabins. On the mountain, a strong foundation of backcountry experience is essential, ensuring every rider can confidently adapt to a diverse mix of wilderness conditions.
