I want to go ski tour the Ortlers as well they are not as crowed as other areas of the Apls. Sorry about the lack of snow. Make sure to have plenty of cash $$ for the huts. Take spare camera bateries and a charger w/ the appropriate power adapter. Take Icebreaker merino layers, you won't need to take extra layers. I look forward to your reports. Congradulations Lou!!

Over here there is very little snow and the few places in South Tyrol with a bit of snow were skiied in the last days so heavily that they are more similar to a mogul piste than anything else. I can only hope you enjoy the scenery, the good food and the good weather. Hope you'll be back another year when there'll be more snow. Sorry.

Being an old tele guy, I need to fee my heal w/o my toe. Is this too much to ask? Lou,

The US emits 2.5 times more CO2 per capita than Western Europe and 5 times more than the world average. It is time for our country to address this inequality and deal with our extravagent energy consumption.

But will comment here (grin). As for global warming (the US) causing drought in Europe, I believe that's a reach. Climate change, including precip variations, has been happening for millions of years. Just because we have global warming doesn't mean we're supposed to blame everything on it! Next thing you know we'll be blaming Martian weather on the United States. And sunspots, we're definitely to blame for those. More, the vibrant world economy that the civilized world enjoys is something the United States has a lot to do with. Trying to blame us for everything bad and not look at the good is ridiculous. Let's have some balance. I’m staying away from politics and religion during this trip.
