Out on my new Punishers today, plenty of pow, though the snow felt a little heavy. We were still in freshies at 3pm :D


Translation :

I'm having an OK time cause my leg muscle are playing up, I'm not very technically minded, been out on my new skis today, Plenty of powder, legs are not what they used to be, translation now breaking up no idea what "We were still in freshies at 3pm" is all about ????

How did I do did I get close ???? :wink:


Either it is the name of a BAr or Fresh Tracks?? :lol:

Quite correct Tony :D Today was utterly amazing. Deep powder everywhere, and the bonus was that the snow had dried out overnight, so it was light and fluffy, and then the sun came out! OH still managed to hit a rock though :roll: Shop repair time I'm afraid...

Spent most of the day off piste in knee deep snow, with the occasional :shock: when falling into a waist deep hole.

Anyone heading out soon will have a great time :D

Not seen ise anywhere yet, but the folks we were with today, saw him yesterday in a restaurant :wink:

Overnight stop at Nuits st George for a glass or two, then on to LGb for lunch Eta midday.
Just to make you all green with envy 30 cm of powder fell yesterday with snow forcast on and off till Thursday, so

Sounds great ... have a lovely time and drive safely.
Will be flying to Gatwick on Friday evening, Best Western booked, .. few beers in the hotel bar and off to Hinterglemm Saturday afternoon.
Fresh snow forecast for us too .. be nice to compare skiing on snow rather than ice.
