Wagrain Rolling!

| Wagrain - looking towards Flachau and Schladming |
The season 2010/2011 is underway. Berwyn gave me a lift to Wagrain, about 45 mins from Bad Hofgastein . With five lifts open on a cold but bright sunny day we had a great time. The snow was a mix of natural and artificial, the skiing a mix between the awkward and the rusty. Hadn’t expected to ski until Saturday when our local slopes open and haven’t had my ski bindings adjusted for the new boots yet.

| Apple Strudel for afternoon tea. |
So the old boots, held together with duck tape, got a final airing.
It was really quiet, just a couple of school classes in the morning and almost empty in the afternoon. Found a few 'death cookies' on one stretch but the slopes were beautifully groomed, not a bare patch in sight. A very nice hut was open at the top, the staff are particularly friendly at the start of the season, the smiles will get a bit forced by the end of April when the season ends. Massive Strudel portions!
Paradise Regained!
