Hospitality And A Pinch Of Salt

The skiing and snowboarding weekend slowly comes to an end and the ski area Hochkar shows its wild side. Heavy wind and now that we are looking out of the big window front at the JUFA Hochkar Sport Resort and enjoying cup cakes it starts to snow.

The GPS shows 1:30 min. until we reach the destination Lackenhof, but where is the snow? Thomas and I don´t believe it anymore to find some snow, let alone white ski slopes.
