YES! Finally some snow

Post by **saturn** » Wed Mar 21, 2007 7:16 pm

Winter has been pretty tame in Europe this year with high temperatures and hardly any snow covering the Alpes mountains in France, Switzerland, Austria. It was pretty shitty when I went to France in January for a week of snowboarding. Grinding the snowboard on small stones and ice in the morning, and slow slush in the afternoon.

Tomorrow we're going to Austria, a bus full with anesthesiology residents, supervisors and the professor himself (cool guy). Skiing, snowboarding, partying for 3 days non-stop (almost). The whole week it has been snowing in Austria (for the first time this winter). I just checked the webcam of the place we're going.

Looking pretty sweet at 1400 meters.

Remind the bus driver not to crash and have fun. Looks like an amazing place to catch some air

That looks FAKE! The background looks like a bad skybox. What game is this for again?

there's a pathetic sprinkling of snow here too, and it can fuck right off. i can't wait for global warming to kick in big time so we never have to see this shit below 10,000ft above sea level

We were very lucky with the snow. The week before it was all grass and cows.

That looks like a fucking awesome run. :icon14:

All of ours has melted. It dumped about 2.5 ft in a week, and two weeks later it's all gone.

(although now the girls are out in shorts and summer dresses

)
