It’s really cool that in Europe everybody skis on the latest World Cup slalom and GS race skis. It’s seems to be indefinitely trendy to be a ski racer in Austria. This makes it way easier to ski lots of powder all day long just off piste. Again, this was the case today at Hochkoenig.
If I had a little more time on my hands, there are ways to use this ski area to access an immense amount of terrain immediately accessible from the ridges. Since I only had one day and was skiing alone, I stuck to the low hanging fruit in the wonderfully gladed areas just off piste where people don’t ski.
Off to the Bavarian region of Germany just north of the Austrian border this evening.
