Ain´t no mountain high enough!

At the beginning of March, twelve adventurous people headed south and high to the Italian Dolomites around Pedraces, La Villa, Corvara & Cortina d´Ampezzo.


Our apartments were on a little farm about 3,5 km off the main valley road up in the mountains. That gave us a challenge on the snowy days when we had to show off handling of snow chains.

For luck, Mark gave us a helping hand, so we could manage the last 500 metres.

The core team consisting of Micha, Jan, Victor, Inka and me were out skiing every day - more than once, we did the Sella Ronda - a connecting round by lifts and pists around the Sella Group. Usually a full day trip, we succeeded in doing one round in 3 hours.




In Cortina, we found a slope only for experts and did some video shooting of our runs downhill.
