Oh, one more thing to do if you're out there, GO TOBOGANNING!

Kirchberg is best in the immediate area.





Now, where's that swear box to put my pound in......

You’re in for a treat if you’re out to Soll this weekend disco1. After not really being able to ski for 2 days due to avalance risk it’s cold and sunny now-hopefully will stay that way. The area above Soll was effectively all closed and what there was in the area was very limited. I think it’s about -4 today I’ve not skied this much deep powder in Europe collectively over the last 5+ years I reckon. I don’t know what the online reports etc are saying but it’s not a true illustration of just how much there is out here.

I heard in a few resorts people have been stranded in resort due to fallen trees blocking roads etc (poor them). I’ll be off to buy a chain saw on Friday and felling as many trees as possible to block the road so I don’t have to go home….. If you let me know what time you arrive I’ll hold off……

Too much want! My patience is wearing very thin, all I seem to do is look at the skiwelt webcams. Also spent pretty much all last night watching old downhill races and advanced tutorials on youtube!

(For anyone looking to see balls out downhill skiing check out the great Franz Klammer in the 76' olympics - wow! I don't even think I'd be able to turn on those skis, he beasted them down the hill that day legend )
