balance sheet snowboarding season 2010/11
This year we had very little snow again. Although winter started (too) early (first snow on October 16th) we topped out at little over 50cm in Au (in December). In a normal winter we should have 1m at least temporarily, and 2m is not a rare. Temperatures were high, too. I was usually wearing a layer less than normally. All this had me riding in Damüls most of time, Diedamskopf only saw me in December, since they have little artificial snow, and natural one was missing. Summer temperatures (20°C) at start of April cut the season very short. My last snow day was on April 3rd. On the upside I did not hurt myself this year (knock, knock) and the weather was good often.
