Which means the day the first snow flies is drawing ever nearer! There's a silver lining in every dark cloud!

Huh? Wha? Too much heat! Augghhhh! I know many dreading the diminishing daylight, but I look forward to it only because it brings upon us that wonderful plaything called snow! :cool: ULLR is ready willing and able... Just the timing needs to be right... that's all.

LPNH - whilst you may be considering way south, I'll be heading due east to the glaciers of Austria in a week. Can't wait! http://www.techsourceconsultants.com/coppermine/albums/userpics/10020/woohoo.gif http://www.techsourceconsultants.com/coppermine/albums/userpics/10020/finger_dance.gif

Austria glaciers... nice ! Portillo, Chile is south of the equator so they are coming into their winter ski season in the Andes mountains now which are the longest highest chain of mountains in the world. Go where the snow is !!!

Yes, I'm familiar with the Andes 'Summer' season and have yet to slide on their snows with planks underfoot (I have with hiking boots!). One of these years I'll be there. Nearly made it last summer in late Aug but the ride(flight) fell through. :rolleyes: I'm guessing you don't know what I do for a living. I'll leave it a mystery for now. :p You know when you'll get to Portillo if you go? I know their 'best conditions' window is very late Aug into early September just after the winds kick up(can't remember the name). Skilasnow who used to frequent this forum lived there for a while.
