The Duke of Sussex hit the slopes as he enjoyed a boys' ski trip to Aspen, Colorado with close friend and polo player, Nacho Figueras.
Prince Harry, 41, looked relaxed as he and Nacho, 48, chatted before taking to the mountains. The pair were dressed ready for action, with the Duke wearing a mauve ski jacket with a blue contrasting zip and black ski pants with matching boots.
While the father-of-two sported a dark blue helmet and sunglasses, his trademark beard was on display.
Meanwhile, Nacho, who is married to Argentine photographer, Delfina Blaquier, donned a navy blue puffer jacket and matching trousers.
A source tells HELLO!: "Prince Harry was with Nacho for about four hours on the mountains. The pair spent the day skiing and enjoyed lunch together at one of the restaurants at the resort. Harry seemed happy and was also joined by a number of male friends on the slopes."
HELLO! understands that Harry's wife, Meghan, and their two children, Prince Archie, six, and Princess Lilibet, four, did not join him on the private trip, but the family are set to spend Christmas at home in Montecito.

Nacho exclusively told HELLO! at the match: "We speak very often, which is amazing to be able to have a friendship that feels like – sometimes we're not together-together – so it's always a good thing to be able to share that with someone."
