  • how about some shallow slopes? 20* meadow skipping can be fun too!

    Totally. I'm just throwing my toys out of the pram a bit. Just haven't had any luck with weather matching up to our hopeful plans in recent years. Summer or winter. I was really really hoping to get a Wildspitze ascent in from Vent this winter or perhaps Hochfirst from Gaisbergtal, which will definitely not be possible because it involves a steep snow climb at the end. I've seen it avalanche in the summer before.

    There are some pretty gentle options for us if the situation stabilisies a little bit and as you say, they can be fun too. Especially if you're the only people in the valley. We're going to be in Obergurgl and some of the hanging glacial side valleys further down the valley (Konigstal, Ferwaltal etc) have much shallower slopes and get quite a lot of sun. Could work out just fine. Fingers crossed.
