Hiking

Yesterday we decided to go hiking to do the off piste valley from Maroikopfle to Langon its about a 30 minute hike to the top from the highest lift in Stuben.
So ten happy riders set off from St.Anton to Stuben in search of fresh tracks...

Pre-hike, all smiles!


To say I thought I was going to die on the way up is a huge understatement, I managed to munch my way through my mars bar in the first ten minutes and also rinse my only supply of water! But once you get to the top the stunning views and sense of accomplishment are totally worth it and of course the 40 minutes of pure fat powder that await you is also just a slight added bonus.




Finally at the top, exhausted!

Unfortunately the powder wasn't that great as the wind and cold had created a hard crust over night but there were still some good patches to be found, it was definitely worth it and also something that will be done again before the end of the season.




The Survivors!
