Spring is Here Again


Spring arrived again this week. The snow is melting fast in the village, and little pockets of colour are developing in the form of crocuses and snow drops.




The temperature on Maennlichen at 8.00 today is already 7 C. It's going to be another slushy day up there. The first couple of runs will be beautiful, snow just softened, wonderfully pisted, no one around. Then towards lunch time it will be getting heavy, the heaps of snow will start pushing back at you. The way through it is with determination, weighting both skis in the turn, and making the turn nice and smooth, all the way round.
