Hey, just wanted to share some pics from a epic day in sonnenkopf and one not that epic, but still epic! really nice terrain, when its too flat light to hit bigger faces!

Sonnenkopf


Sonnenkopf

Sonnenkopf is my favorite little zone in the Arlberg. Provided me with so many cheeky little powder days when there was no fresh in St Anton.

From the winter of 2003

Sweet! Been there and done that, too!
That road way down below gives the photo a nice sense of scale.
and, in the upper right corner, u can just make out the cables emerging from the fog.
thnx 4 sharing!

sweet. was that when you brought a rope?

nope. i was packing a gun to shoot myself if the slope gave way and i began tumbling down into oblivion.
i have a terrible fear of bad landings

Finally, this snow cycle has gone wild ...

According to the regional avalanche service there has been a cumulutive total of new snow of up to 3m in some regions in the North-Eastern Alps. Of course avalanche danger has been upgraded to 5 now in some regions and some roads, schools etc. are closed.

Skiing is pretty much reduced to tree runs (and even there steep terrain is scary as some recent accidents have indicated).

Altausse (700m):


Lopernalm/Tauplitz (1600m):

Romania had also a fair amount of snow over the week-end, but unfortunately the wind blew it all away... Though we managed to find some sweet spots for a few runs in Sinaia

Ripz ? That day when you decided to get a POV ?
That was a very wise decision.

Nice first post.
Just curious: are you rocking a pair of Armada JJ's in the pics?
(just pulled the trigger for a slightly used demo pair...I guess that was a score bacause they seem to be very hard to find at the moment!)

[muchocacao]

JJs are money, best skis i ever had, you won't be disappointed.

[Incompetent Boob]

Well, looks like we were in the wrong spot. 5 days riding varying depths in the trees at Laax. 4 days of shitty vis and the top lifts being closed meant that there wasn't much else to do. Found some fun stuff though, which was sometimes very good, but often wind-fucked and/or not deep enough.

What a year to stop being a skibum

Punching myself right now.

yes they are JJ's, my precious JJ's! I think that is one of the smartest descision you have ever made!

So today i woke up to around 50 cm of fresh pow, and my local resort (a shitty little place, but some fun terrain) manages to have the lifts closed due to maintenance. really shitty timing, but its gonna puke for 1 more day and then bluebird! Stooked!

See that you live jikkeivarre, or at least ski in Lyngen?
tromso here!

[Jiehkevarri]

I think that is one of the smartest descision you have ever made!

Great to hear! I was a bit unsure between the JJ's or something more "charger"...just couldn't pass a great deal.

or at least ski in Lyngen?

I live in Helsinki, Finland. And actually I've only been to Lyngen once...but it was so inspiring/beautiful that I chose the screen name based on the highest peak there (and I am going back there for sure some day...two little kids just make things a bit complicated - so I am doing mosty resort/(easy) slackcountry skiing these days).

I make a movie from the Swiss ghetto.

[Yemble]

Love it! The slide at 2:16 then seeing it crash a few seconds later is sweet.

[Ripzalot]

^^^ fantastic terrain, great skiing!



man, i gotta get over that way this season...

[Schnappi]

I'm slightly embarrassed that it beat me to the bottom by so much time. I've really slowed down my skiing this season.

Ok... Val d´isere actually treated us just nicely...



Now it is time for monte rosa cardboard.

Yeah, Val Di wasn't too bad



Now post up some pics of those monterosa coolers
