My last day of cross country skiing was April 22nd last year. Will I break my record this year? I dropped my camera in the snow just before I took this shot so there may have been a bit of snow on the lens. :( But I'm posting the shot anyway.

In downtown Talent, Oregon, my adopted home town.

On our Hochschwab tour we did not have good conditions for skiing, but this part is quite flat. The poles in the background are for tour skiers to orient on the plateau.

Die Exponate rund um Ski und Rodel, die der Museums-Gründer und ehrenamtliche Leiter Gerald Fritsch über Jahrzehnte zusammengetragen hat, sind das Herzstück des Ski- und Heimatmuseums Friedrichsbrunn.

You can see many black spots on the mountain(easy to see to enlarge this photo). All of them are skier(A very small number of people is a mountain climber)!

They ski down from the top of Mt.Chokai.

 

斜面にたくさんの黒い点が見えると思います(拡大した方が見やすいです)。これ、ほぼ全てスキーヤーです(ほんの少しだけ、登山者もいます)。彼等は鳥海山山頂(七高山)から一気に滑り降りてきます。

Santa's helpers get a much deserved ski break just before the biggest night of the year!

About the Ebook

 

As a self challenge for December 2021 a photo was taken every day up to Christmas Day (sometimes multiple photos a day) featuring 1/6 scale dioramas, Elf on the Shelf and Santa to celebrate the upcoming holiday. For any collector of smaller scaled items this is a must for any fan of Christmas in general.

Ski Train at Union Station, Denver, Colorado.

 

(BTW, there are no mountains in Downtown Denver. The mountain in the background has been added via Photoshop.)

 

The Ski Train is a year round passenger railroad operated by the Ansco Investment Company, which purchased the assets of the Denver and Rio Grande Western Railroad in 1988. The train began service in 1940 and runs from Union Station in Denver, Colorado for 56 miles to the ski resort town of Winter Park, Colorado. The train's scenic route leaves Union Station and travels through northwest suburban Denver, generally parallel to South Boulder Creek, past Pinecliffe and Rollinsville. The route climbs about 4,000 feet and passes through 29 tunnels before reaching the final mountain underpass, the 6.3 mile long Moffat Tunnel. This is the highest railroad tunnel in the United States and passes under the Continental Divide. The train stops less than 100 yards from the base of the ski lifts of Winter Park Resort. There is one trip in each direction per day, with a travel time of 2 hours and 15 minutes, assuming no delays from freight rail traffic. (Wikipedia)

This is an amazing lodge with a great-looking interior. The wood and stone that have been implemented into the design give it a very natural feel. This is usually a great way to add a refreshing and relaxing tone to a room. The materials, accessories, and fireplace further add to that cozy atmosphere

A beautiful, albeit windy day, near Névache.

The ski jumping hill in Ruka, Finland. That's the venue where the ski jumping World Cup season usually begins.

This abandoned ski resort looked like a really interesting place to explore, but the dogs made it less inviting.

January 2021

My wife and I have skied every Christmas since we met. The last couple of years Christmas has been dry. So it was nice to ski powder on Christmas again, even if it was only a few inches. We've had a dry start this season so any snow is good. And it looks like we've turned the corner with a huge storm cycle just starting.

Ski tracks! Januari 2025, Arvidsjaur, Lapland, Sweden!

Cross-country skiing has a long history in the Nordic countries. Today, this versatile sport is practiced on ready-made tracks, as here in Ylläs in northern Finland. Even today, during the darkest season and in severe frost, many enjoy this beloved species. In addition to skiing, you can then admire the ever-changing lights and colors of the North.
