So I Thought I'd gather my two postings from the snow for the Euros thread and create a Mini TR. Nothing spectacular, but some good pow some lines and some touring. I hope you enjoy it. Despite the horrible avie season here the South has been really great and stable. Tomorrow I'll be back and try to tick of some AKish features I've been eyeing since last season because I don't think there will be three southern winters in a row. You can vaguely see the objective in picture four behind the power lines further up the valley.
Here is what we did during the last few weeks:
We skied some pow close to home

Wewent for some ski touring down south in the ticino, which was quite deep.

But we were rewarded with great pow.

Luckily the skin track was put in by other people. It took me 1 1/2 hours for 200m vert and a little variation because we didn't want to si down our tracks as the ordinary touring people seem to appreciate since it was unskiable below 32°

The rewards were pretty cool though.

here is what I've been doing this season so far in moving pictures. Only go pro footage since our old trusty mini hdv camcorder just doesn't want to do its magic anymore. In case you were wondering what has become of "frozen empire": well I don't have 100 hours to edit. I edited this little thing today because i've got the flue and some time. anyway. enjoy :)
