I just imagine Ian to be like meself, skiing down, looking at those wonderful alpine views, thinking beautiful thoughts about the nature of things.......

In 3 minutes?

thanks for all comments.

my aspirations are completely different post accident. My ambition used to be to ski down the black Combe de Caron in Val Thorens. that's been scrubbed and I'm now taking it one step at a time starting with revisiting Obergurgl to boost my confidence and then, after Arabba, getting back onto Tennladen in 2011 and nailing that mother!

Beyond that... it'll fall into place at some point but, with my fear of heights getting worse and with confidence not what it used to be, I'm not aiming much higher (no pun intended) :D

I thinking about where I'm gonna stop for a drink 8) 8)

Well by the time you have started skiing the Bin Laden run in N, you are left with one choice and thats the Umbrella Bar at the bottom, which is a dirty smokey old double glazed attempt at a bar.
If, however, you decide to have a drink BEFORE you set off, then you can appreciate the view across towards Kitz:

Seriously, looked a superb run and although it is a different perception from the camera view point looks a place of interest for the future.

Niederau is not your kind of place Stewart, of that I can be certain.

Why is that Mr H?

Is it some special resort where you have to have some special ability to go to.
I seem to remember in several posts you suggested Niederau as a place to go skiing, especially to learn more!!!!

Stewart, stop this nonsense immediately. I will explain next time we meet.

Is isn't the complete run, and half of the video is taken up by the two easier fields at the top. But the field after the path through the woods does give a flavour of the run. It is a pity that it doesn't cover the remainder of the run, particularly the jump at the start of the run-in.

Very shady, the run, not you Dave
