A bit tough to do any high altitude ski touring, however... but we've had a great time anyway. Lenka, indeed, if we’d been resort skiing the weather would have been perfect!

And, although I wasn't even born in the '60s :), I had a similiar, although simplified, set-up on my first cross-country skis (late '70s). Oh, and thanks for bringing some Colorado pow along to Europe, we've been somewhat short on that before your arrival! :) Lenka K. Hi Lou,

What skis would be appropriate when the pigs fly and we get 20 inches of fresh sow?
