Our Little Story...

Arriving in 1964, Georg and Stefanie Hartlmaier established themselves as Brian Head's first full-time residents. It was Georg’s experience in ski racing and coaching in Germany & Austria that brought him to Brian Head as the Resort's first Mountain Manager and Ski School Director. With the support of Stefanie, they opened Georg’s Ski Shop to provide ski gear and apparel to mountain visitors.

 

Georg Hartlmaier was Austrian certified in 1962, and became PSIA full certified in 1967.  He served on the Board of Directors for two terms, as well as an examiner.  Georg was a member of the Division Demo Team. Georg was a world-class ski racer and mountain climber.  The highlight of his climbing experiences was to scale Mt. Everest.

Georg Hartlmaier is an honorary life-time member of PSIA and one of a small group to be named an honorary member of Alta's Alf Engen Ski School.

Making Brian Head their home, Georg and Stefanie raised three children, with their sons Georg and Robby now running the shop to continue their parents' legacy. After more than 50 years, Georg’s is still family owned and operated, providing a full service winter and summer sports store. Come in and say hello to Georg, Robby, Tatiana, and the rest of the family!
