A glorious week to be skiing

It has been a glorious week for skiing. Lots of snow, cold overnight temperatures, blue skies during the day and not many tourists. This is karma, over the years you win a few you loose a few when it comes to good ski conditions. You know you are REALLY lucky when your half-term break falls onto the perfect week.

It's not too cold, not to hot, the fir trees are deep green, the birds tweeting, the mountain restaurants not overflowing with people, the slopes are perfectly prepared, the snow crunching below your skis, the magnificent summit panorama, each peak glistening in the sun and the view, oh those views are simply breathtaking! I am in seventh heaven...


Gstaad's slogan: Come up slow down!


Looking over onto the Valais mountain range


View from the Videmanette


Rinderberg has a new little restaurant


Great for a hot chocolate break


Hitting the slopes again


Off piste?!?


Even the chairlift ride is pretty


Another panoramic beauty


I just can't get enough of this view!
