Skied yesterday at Dana Meadows just inside the east entrance at Yosemite. Delightful go-anywhere just right crust-corn skiing on wide-open rolling meadows.

Do a search in this group for "New Zealand". I posted a similar
question ~2 years ago (I think, in May, too - got depressed b/c of seeing dandelions in my backyard). |

Lots of places have XC skiing tracks on glaciers where one can train in our summer. The Dachstein Glacier at Ramsau in Austria is the closest to me and is my favorite. We've had posts in the past about the endless skiing year, where people dream about skiing each month in a different location, different continent or different hemisphere. Search in Google Groups for their suggestions. |

My mother, in central Alberta, says they've been getting a bit of snow every day for the last week- it melts during the day. But I read that the Elk Pass area of K-country got 30 cm of snow May 4-5! "http://www.cd.gov.ab.ca/enjoying_alberta/parks/featured/kananaskis/trailreport.asp" I suppose May and June would be the best time of year for skiing across Greenland! Apparently in Norway it is a tradition on 17-May (Norway's National Day) to ski from Finse railway station (elev. 1222 m ) to the top of the Hardanger glacier (about 1700 m). Finse is easily accessable - several trains per day from Oslo. Here is an article and photos from a Swede who infiltrated the Norwegian festivities last 17-May: "http://www.utsidan.se/ddb/skidsport/artiklaralla/596.htm" -- David Dermott , Wolfville Ridge, Nova Scotia, Canada email: WWW pages: http://www3.ns.sympatico.ca/dermott/ |
