In 2001 he took over as editor of Ski and Board, the Ski Club of Great Britain’s magazine, steering it through the Club’s centenary year in 2003.

During the year he also wrote a book, Snow Crazy (Metro) chronicling a century of enthralling and whimsical events from the Ski Club’s history, and presented ‘100’ - a centenary video, incorporating a substantial amount of footage from the Ski Club’s archives. Wilson has won a number of accolades for his ski writing, including awards from The German National Tourist Office, and Ski USA. He was named British Ski Writer of the Year in 1999. Wilson has now skied in more than 600 resorts in 25 countries and has no plans to hang up his skis until he has made it 1,000. His next mission is to ski in all 40 of America’s “skiing states” – he has 13 to go. Wilson, who has four skiing daughters, Samantha, Lara, Amber and Melissa, is the author of Top Ski Resorts of the World (published by New Holland, October 2002 and available in German and Italian editions)  with an introduction by Franz Klammer, as well as the Thomas Cook International Top 50 Ski Resorts (1989) and Ski The World (1998).
