To be honest i cant quite understand how this wasn't the most extreme airport, it had nothing on the others, absolute madness. I take my hat off to all the pilots who can land a plane on that thing !

The Alps
France In France, only Tignes is currently offering any skiing but, with no recent snowfall to speak of, the glacier pistes are hard and icy. A little snow is likely over the weekend (which will improve conditions) and a more substantial fall is possible later next week. Switzerland Glacier skiing is possible in three Swiss resorts this week: Engelberg, Zermatt and Saas Fee; with a fourth, St Moritz (Diavolezza, pictured), scheduled to open one piste on Saturday. Conditions are ok, but fresh snow would be welcome, and only Engelberg is likely to receive this in any quantity this weekend. Italy The glacier at Val Senales is currently Italy's only option, with five pistes open on a healthy 150cm base. Fresh snow is forecast over the weekend. Austria Several glaciers are open for business in Austria. Stubai is running 13 lifts but Hintertux has the most available terrain in the Alps, with 42km of groomed pistes. Cold and snowy weather is expected over the weekend. North America The annual race to be the first (non-glacial) US resort to open is still on. However, fluctuating temperatures have prevented the snow guns from working as efficiently as they did last year when Loveland pipped Arapahoe to the post on 7th October. Generally speaking, natural snow is thin on the ground in North America but there is plenty of time before most resorts are scheduled to open. This winter the odds are in favour of a bumper snow year for the northern Rockies and Pacific north-west (Whistler). This is thanks to La Niña, an occasional climate anomaly that strongly influences weather patterns across the continent. According to metrosnow. |

The only webisodes i know of are Line Traveling Circus and Salomon Freeski TV at the moment, another thing you can do is buy this years films iv heard Light the Wick from TGR is amazing.
Also, If your have SkyHD there is a channel called rush HD, they have documentary type shows that follow professionals traveling and filming for segments which is quite cool. |
