More snow.....

Lots of snow is still falling out of the sky. Is it ever going to stop? The answer is: NO. Until next friday it will keep going on.
Last night it snowed among 70 to 100 cm of fresh snow. The avalanche danger is up to 4 today (scale 1 to 5). All the lifts were closed and the roads to st Anton are closed.

Snow Snow snow, come to Austria!

The snow conditions are amazing. The last week it snowed continuously. The tremendous snowfall caused a lot of inconvenience on the roads in Germany and France and a lot of tourist had trouble coming to their vacation destination. The winterstorms will keep on going until comming wednesday. Then it will brighten up, and we will have the advantage of all the heavy snowfall. The lifts will open again. The avalanche risk will drop.....I am looking forward! powder heaven!
