The weather's bad though. Only a few weeks ago a similar thing has happened in France, sudden massive snowfall, resorts paralyzed with wind, cut out villages, and now the same stuff is going on here.

This one was accidental because I couldn't figure out how to aim my cell phone camera for some reason. Also, an ultra high quality mountain shot from my Jitterbug: Quote

RidgeRacer Posted January 24, 2018 Report Posted January 24, 2018 Salty please tell me that you brought, at the very least, a DSLR camera to Europe and didn't rely solely on your Jitterbug. That mountain shot looks like it was taken with a civil war camera. 2 2 Quote

I was going to say I brought a Poloroid but I promised to stop trolling. It was my new year's resolution. 2 Quote

It's certainly looking brighter today. If yesterday they had only 88/305km of piste open, now it's 198/305km with 68/88 lifts. Quote
eaf Posted January 29, 2018 Author Report Posted January 29, 2018 Whoo-hoo, we've made it there! The roads were so windy that some of us got hit by motion sickness. There's zero snow in Zurich, green grass and singing birds, but in Warth at the mountain base at 1400m elevation there's half a meter cover still left from the last storm. That's all despite +5C during the day and some rain two days ago. 9 Quote
