Hitting the Slopes...

In the good way, and also the falling over way...



Over the course of a few years, I was lucky enough to get the chance to learn to ski through work. This meant heavily subsidised costs, someone else doing the organising, and a great bunch of people to learn with! 

Year 1, complete novice. Zell am See, Austria:












Year 3, reasonably competent; Mayrhofen, Austria:

I got my own skis! (the little blue ones in the middle)


Avalanche lessons

Harakiri - Austria's steepest pisted ski run
