Pass the inco pads :lol:

Thanks, it was a truly memorable week and to consider i was not best equiped with my Palmer freecarve skis. They stood up to the test on the un-pisted ski routes very well. I only clicked out of them once when i skied into three feet of snow at speed :lol:

Sebastian Vettel was staying just up the road at the Rote Wand during our stay and we saw other guests having to locate their vehicles with a stick before digging them out.

I'm sure it will be a great season with loads of snow right up until the end of the season :D

We live in hope Nelly, there is still a lot of snow on its way. Fingers crossed :D

Glad you liked them Snowb4ndit :D Best snow in my skiing career so far. One of the guy's in our chalet had been skiing since the 1970's and said it was the best/most he had encountered. :D

Diverted to an airport in Germany which was expected but only two hours from the Arlberg. Stopped once in the coach to fit snow chains and continued onto Zug. The major pass was closed 30 minutes after we arrived at destination :wink: Had a great week. Tony, Wickers and co will have one hell of good time :D

Now 20 sleeps to Sestriere, bring it on :D

Ah, that'll be Friedrichshafen then.

I've seen photos from St Anton last week and it looks incredible.

Thats the one Tony, very quick turn around with bags etc. It all went very well. The snow was epic and thats an understatement. Have a great time. :D
