Skiing in Sölden

First skiing trip of the season was an intermediate/advanced coaching clinic courtesy of Scott and Rob from Inside Out Skiing. Sölden (Austria) was chosen because of it's reasonably high altitude and 2 glaciers to ski on in the very early part of the ski season.


The plan was for this to be a Piste Performance clinic, but since it dumped it with snow after 1 day, it morphed into an off-piste clinic too. So we managed to do a little bit of everything from GS carving to Powder to Crud within the week.


It was a fantastic week, fantastic snow, and a great bunch of people to ski with. Can't wait for the next ski trip (Snowheads bash in the Dolomites again, hopefully), and maybe a return to Sölden for another coaching clinic next year!
