Backcountry skiing the Hochstaff
Unfortunately the avalanche danger is very high at the moment, so ‘big’ mountains are out of the question for now. But we did get tons of fresh snow lately, so Niko and I went for one of the lower mountains today, where the forests protect from avalanches (but keep the adrenaline high with their own little surprises, like hidden branches and tree stumps). Snow covered landscapes, fresh powder all the way down to the valleys, and especially in the (nicely skiable) forests … nice!
