I've been hitting the dryslope once a week which is good to keep the legs awake but not much more. I got three days on snow at my local hill which felt like a huge privilege after such a long wait, those first turns off the first chair were unreal! I had planned to go there for another three days this week but they just decided to close early for the season. It's kind of an unreliable place, that's the third time this winter I've booked a pass online then they've changed the opening times at the last minute. I think they just see how many advance tickets have sold then make a decision whether or not to open. Now with covid meaning online advance ticket sales only, they know exactly how many people will show up.
I'm still thinking to head north in Sweden in April if I can fit it in the calendar. The season WAY up north is in full swing right now but its a long journey. Even though the restrictions are almost non existent in Sweden, it feels a bit off to travel from a major city to a tiny arctic community until everyone is vaccinated.
Otherwise I'm hoping travel will be easier and I can get to a glacier this summer. I spent three weeks in Hintertux last summer and it was amazing to ride so many days in July.
