Slovakia Weekend vol 2

Slovakia Weekend vol 2

Insert: 03.02.2010
In the upcoming weekend he had to solve where to go for snow. Little  while we were thinking of Japan, but after  dialogue we make decision  how else to Slovakia. Specifically for Vratna. Snow forecast was  positive and promising decent powder bath.


On Saturday morning we have a date with Hungarian friend Michael,  me and my sister got in to hes car and went  to Vratna. On the way from Vratna, we  get information from Wlado that Vratna resort is closed, so we have to change our final destination to Lucivna resort  which is  very close to Vratna. Lucivna  is a small resort, with 3 lifts, certainly it is not so big as Vratna and everything looks the same as on Vratna , but everything without ques. So  we looked forward to take a luxury rides.

Unfortunately, I was not able  try  these resort. Soon as we drove into the woods, it showed that under half a meter of powder  no basis layer, and we were forced to spend the rest of the day close to  close. Slope is long about 1300 meters and  they  said to be most steep downhill slope in Czechoslovakia.  I must say that we finally have good day on the piste.

On Sunday, the lift on Vratna was released. Because Vratna resort  is slightly higher than Lucivna, so this place looked a little better with the snow . On the tom was fog and  snowing heavily. The upper  woods part  around the lift it was excellent, but in the below  parts  there was more rocks and it was not for someone who likes own skis . Anyway,  we didn’t take care of our skis , so we skied it hard as well at the bottom. Yet I want to mention that where where we went we had avalanche Cut-off  we try  avoided  trough but anyway we had few avalanches in the wood .Vratna resort is open only on weekends  so you will get some next photo soon.
