Neue Welt, Zugspitze

What a great day out with friend Christoph skiing on the Zugspitze. Garmisch received more snow than we actually thought. So of course we both came to the same sort of idea - we had to do something!
I called Christoph and he asked me what I was doing the following day? Skiing of course I said. Great we are going somewhere special he said...

oh it's down there

That somewhere special happened to be the Neue Welt off piste run. For those not from this "hood", that means nearly 2000m of vertical drop, a bit of skiing to 45 degrees, a couple rappels...well you get the idea. A pretty decent day out in the mountains.

quite a bit of snow

The snow was good to brilliant from top to bottom which must be pretty rare. That just made our day. Of course it wouldn't be a day here in this part of the world without the traditional beer (or two) following the run.
