It’s Skiology’s birthday week! What began as 19 photos to celebrate 19 years soon evolved into a cluster of photos to mark each year’s milestones. There are just too many photos and cherished memories to choose just one per year. We hope you enjoy these as much as we did putting it together 🙂
2006
Where it all started! Our first ski season as we launched in 2006. Skiology brothers Luke and Dom ran Chalet Bry in Les Carroz which is still operating today albeit not by us ha ha !
2007
In 2007 Steph and Dom get together
and Steph starts to get involved
with the running of the chalet
2008
In 2008 Deux Freres was purchased
in the beautiful village of Les Carroz
which was to be our first flagship chalet.
2009

many team trips to come all over the Alps!

2010
In 2010 we took on La Roche and L’isiere for the 2009/2010 winter in Morzine and these remained our Prodains Chalet right up until the 2018 ski season.
Skiology’s Yantz came on the scene around this time- reporting for WeLove2Ski. Check out his videos>> (Thank me later)
2011
Dom and Steph became Mr and Mrs Skiology in late 2011 in the beautiful surroundings of The Farmhouse in Morzine.
Steph, Dom, Grace and Sophie dabbled in our YouTube career with our rendition of ”So Long, Farewell” at the end of the 2010/11 season. Check it out >>

2014
Left: Paul Boyer’s Beyond Organic wines were introduced to our chalets at the start of the 2014 ski season. An instant hit with guests and we have since gone on to add more variety to the chalets with other local organic wines too!

It’s where it all began for Skiology and paved the way for more chalets in Morzine. Chalet ”Deux Freres” (two brothers) will always have a special place in the Skiology story.
