Let It Snow!!!! Winter Sports Thread

It was a good couple of days in Røldal ski centre on a teambuilding session as part of a new job.
Conditions were good. I have been to Røldal before in terrible complete white out conditions and had to navigate down the side of the piste via the piste pole markers.
Managed to traverse over to the more interesting (steeper) slopes at the edge of the area. A 5 miniute traverse and a short boot up the ridge to get access to the steeper stuff (lookers right on the photo).
Did have to endure a team sledge race at the end of the day. Was stone cold last having lost control on a corner and lost the kids toy off the edge of the run into some deep snow and trees, took me 10mins to find the damn thing.

Looks beautiful!
Are you in Vent @Twistlock ? -
Enjoy your stay @Twistlock !
What do you think, is it enough snow till eastern? -
Unfortunately we are not planning for the Ötztal.
Depending on the snow conditions we visit the Arlberg again @Twistlock . -
Only skiied twice in the past two years due to the kid. Stoked to be back in the mix next season when she can join me but got some turns in at Steamboat this past weekend.
In the market for some new skis and demoed Stereo Apex V3. Liked them a lot and they may be my next move. I also need a new boot and will see what Surefoot recommends for that. If you’re not familiar check them out, a different way of customizing a boot.

@mclaincausey looks amazing! Skied there when I was 10 and have never gotten the chance to go back. I remember it for two things…first ride in a gondola and sitting in an outdoor hot tub while it dumped snow. Would love to take the family now

@SKT when you do, you absolutely must visit Strawberry Park Springs. I looks like Hobbiton and features a number of grotto style hot springs and the chilly waters of the Yampa River so you can plunge back and forth between frigid and scalding water. It’s amazing.
