ineedsnow for ski / snowboard holidays
After several days of great skiing around Innsbruck, Axamer Lizum delivered another great powder day, this time under blue skies. With around 20cm of new snow that banked in places, adding to the already impressive off-piste then conditions for early December were excellent. There were few people on the mid-week slopes and so many fresh [...]
Axamer Lizum, Innsbruck served up some great powder skiing today, with clear skies and clouds down in the valley. Views along the Innsbruck valley suggested that the great conditions were available in most ski areas in Tirol with the cloud lingering around 1500m. The break in the weather seems to be just that with the [...]
With snow records for the accumulation in both a resort and a ski area that tops Europe, a stunning, stylish and authentic way of living and one of the best welcomes in the Alps – Bregenzerwald really does have it all. The snow record is staggering; I skied in a large ski area this weekend [...]

So the winter continues here in Austria with heavy snow over night down to around 700m on the mountains to the south of Innsbruck. The rest of the week is set to have light snow and sun, whilst the weekend is due to be cold with more snow. Great weather today here in Innsbruck with [...]
So the cold weather continued but clear blue skies that not been predicted in the Tirol arrived to offer really outstanding conditions. I was in the Zillertal and spent some time capturing shots of a group of snowboarders who were riding perfect powder down the back of the Durlassoden Dam, between the resorts of Gerlos [...]
So snow all the way down to Innsbruck and heavy snowfall across all the surrounding mountains. The strong winds and low visibility make ski conditions not ideal, especially with temps down to -21c on the glaciers (then factor in the wind chill). Many Innsbruckers today ventured to the Christmas markets instead of the mountains.
So after a 7 weeks of glacier skiing the winter has arrived as far down as Innsbruck. The snow level is currently 1400m and set to fall throughout the evening with snow fall down to Innsbruck (575m) scheduled all day Saturday and through to Monday. Tuesday is set to be colder and clearer. My local [...]
It was May 08 when I had my best powder day of the winter in Austria on the Pitztal Glacier. November served another superb powder day over the weekend although the off-piste terrain is more limited by the gaping crevasses that are very evident on the edges of the ski area. There were plenty of [...]
The snowboard epicentre of the Tirol Oberland, the Kaunertal Glacier had great conditions over the last week and this weekend was no different. New snow and clear skies gave some excellent conditions. The run back to the base station car park is still being prepared but the entire main glacier area is open and it [...]
