Springtime in the Alps continued with a trip to Sportgastein for cross-country skiing. The Black loop was closed because of the Avalanche danger. We were perfectly safe but we heard, and saw, quite a few slips down the surrounding mountains. They say you never hear the shot that kills you, imagine it’s the same with avalanches. You see them long before the sound reaches your ears. We really enjoyed our circuits in the spring sunshine. The snow was a lot softer than I have been used to so am not sure how well the tracks would hold the skis on a fast downhill! Probably just as well the Black was closed!. The downhill skiers looked to be really struggling in the heat with all their helmets and heavy ski's. For us it was just a walk in the park.
