New Year's Eve in Austria

New Year's Eve in Austria

Výprava za jediným sněhem v Evropě

Insert: 04.01.2010
The conditions that prevailed between holidays were really depressing. After no sign of snow and temperatures around 10 degrees, took all snow away from the base. Even at Roháče in Slovak Republic you could not go in the valley on a ski touring equipment. Well, I’d like to descripe 7 days in the mountains and continue in the article which was about Christmas in Austria.


After an agreement there is no choice except the Alps. We should have set out the 25th of December, but my body temperature 40 degree changed plans a little so some groups left earlier then the others. As soon as I felt better we finally set out and of course we arrived after a really strong heat wave +5 C in 2600m.n.m. The Alps got really taught melting situation where conditions were changing every day. Its about to find more suitable northern side of th emountain than entire resort. We have Salzburg’s ski passes so we sticked around Mölltal, Sport Gastein, Kaprun coz anywhere else is just not worth it coz of the melitng issue.


Klikos’  apartment for two, seriously resist the onslaught of 10 people. The situation was getting a little bit out of control when the son of the owner of a secondary building went to play a squash at 11 o’clock at nigh where the court is located right under Klikos’s apartment.


Martin got a bit amok so he went down there to gave a lesson to that spoiled Owners son. Next day the young Ondra has realized what has happened and immediately catching out Martin and explaining him that he is physically stronger and if this situation is going to repeat Martin will not just walk away. Who knows Martina knows that last time he used his power was in a nursery school and past Davos after he attacked Zelda after 1 liter of slivovitz. Finally, nothing serious happened, but the fun of it was (mainly for the rest of us)great.


Back to riding. Every day of our arrival to resort was pushed into later timing and arriving at 8 was a past. Snow conditions improved only on the northern side of Kaprun, so I took Adis and Klikos to hike a bit, I mean just Adis went with me. And how on this trip turned out, I could say that the photographer and Adis upon arrival went immediately asleep from 17 to 20 o‘clock.


The total trip was in a family spirit, no proper assignment. Even so, managed to create some nice photos and some of the Category 1. At night, the last day of departure, the snow started dumping and the nearest forest resort Shmitehohe 2050m.nm become the best we probably could ride, but these pictures and articles will be next time. Martin stayed with Jane one day longer and accoriding to webcam they had a real powder day. So I guess their 16 days in a row of riding is evaluate positively compered with our stay.
