Family visit and skiing!

Last weekend, my family, that is, a part of, came to see me and join me in some rad skiing. Loads of fun! My dad and my bro Shorty camped out at my flat for a couple of days and the action was on. We went to Fieberbrunn

for the first day, just to find out there was a Big Mountain contest going on. Sweet watching the pros do their thing!
We finally found a way into the couloirs, meaning that we have entered a whole new level in Fieberbrunn Big Mountain riding! So many powdery possibilities!
I can still ski! After almost two years of not skiing due to that heinous knee injury I contracted last year, things were pretty dope! I don´t have any stamina and my thighs are on fire after skiing for some 200 metres without taking a break (especially in powder, I last longer on track;) but it was some sick fun! Pics are to come, as soon as I´ve been mailed them.
Sunday wasn´t as good but still very nice. I just like Fieberbrunn a lot better than Steinplatte.
Totally done, Shorty and me headed to the gym to get some climbing on Monday. He crushes! Can´t wait for this spring, there´s gonna be some Frankenjura cragging and that´s gonna be amazing!
Sharma slideshow tonight! I´m very psyched to be able to see this lecture and I have been looking forward to it for days. Chris Sharma is the most influential and visionary sport climber right now (in my understanding) and I´m hoping that tonight is gonna be inspirational. My sinusitis is a lot better today, with enough hydration and some hot lime juice, things might get better right on time for the weekend.
Inspired by my friend Em, who is going to hike the Appalachian Trail this spring/summer I have also been thinking about crossing the Alps hiking the past days. It´s something my dad has been dreaming of for quite some time, so I might break this proposal to him and see how he takes it...

Out!
