The End of an Era...We are Shutting Down the Messageboard

The messageboard is now in read-only mode and no new posts or topics can be created. We will leave the messageboard up for historical purposes, but you will not be able to make new posts or comment on existing ones.

We have started a Discord server and hope that you all will join us on there. Technology has changed over the years and maintaining the messageboard has become somewhat of a pain in the butt and Discord offers many features for users, the main one being a very polished mobile app.

We really hope you all will join us on Discord and think you will like the platform. Use the invite link below to join.

Apres ski was good:

The snow conditions were just ok, but there were spots to be found:

And when there wasn't:

Lots of rock around:

Notice the chairs made of snow:

I think this was as high as I got (around 3300m if I recall):

I traveled with a few friends, so we actually found it was cheaper to hire a private van to take us all the way to Val Gardena. We stayed at the Hotel Oswald (breakfast and dinner included in hotel price).
