  3. On the second and last day of our ski touring eastern we ascended the Rossbodenstock, skied down to Andermatt and took the train back to our car. As expected several others ascended the same summit. But it was far from crowded. Round about 20 people on the summit. The descent to Andermatt is fairly steep (rated AD+), so there we were for ourselves again. The first part was really very rough and icy.
    But afterwards we were gifted with absolutely lovely conditions. We managed to ski almost to the first houses of Andermatt.

    Two really great days, well spent.

  5. Reminiscing on a historic moment. ✨ Oriol Cardona Coll won Spain's first Winter Olympic gold medal in 54 years. 🇪🇸🥇 #Olympics #MilanoCortina2026 #SkiMo @ISMFSkimo

  6. Quick report from Swiss mountains.
    Still nice as always. Good skimo guaranteed.
    Capanna Cristallina is one of the best huts I have visited so far. Bye and see you next year!

  8. Super nice weather for a ski tour today. Sunny and warm with no wind at all.
    Nothing steep today as the risk of avalanches was quite high.

  10. Slowly rebuilding lost fitness and mobility. This morning was the first time out on mountaineering skis for 2026. Was blowing hard near the endpoint. Full on spring conditions on the descent.

  11. In the spirit of the #Olympics, #Skimo, #Skiing
    french ski builder in Chamonix, a master, not just with skis, but with life. 25 minutes

    You have to click a few buttons to get to the film, but it is a beautiful story about craft, loss, rebuilding, community.

  12. I’m a backcountry skier, maybe even a #skimo guy, and I don’t understand the #Olympic format “Ski Mountaineering” debuting this week in Cortina at all. It’s an incredible bit of athleticism, for sure, but where’s the mountaineering part? Five minute laps up and down a short, groomed course (with stairs?) is a totally different thing than skinning switchbacks up a steep meadow, negotiating rock bands, and surfing knee-deep powder through a glade… i.e., all the good parts of ski mountaineering.

  14. What with the new Olympic #SkiMo event, thought I’d post this
    Back in my Teton days I took a turn at ski building. Built a pneumatic press out of box steel, bolts, a wood top & bottom forms, & the pneumatic part made from discarded fire hose & an air compressor. P-tex bases, metal edges, & wood laminates. The Black Walnut skis were designed for powder, the maple skis were stiffer. Kid broke his hitting bumps. His had randonnée bindings, mine were tele skis, intended for off-piste #skiing.

  16. Not exactly the best conditions for skimo today at Salatín. Poor visibility and wind getting stronger with each meter of elevation.
    No problem at least we got out of the couch 😀

  18. 🔥 Otra titana (y española) que casi no se conoce, pero que va a darlo todo en los #JJOO a pesar de haberse lesionado gravemente hace poco.
    Os cuenta Jara un poco de ella y sobre su “arma” elegida para competir: La Medi M4S

  24. Yesterday I learned about the new winter Olympic sport Ski mountaineering, or skimo. Who thinks these things up? Essentially uphill skiing and more. Can't imagine the shape you have to be in to do it.

  28. Our target for yesterday's skimo trip to Žiarska dolina, Slovakia. The saddle is called Smutné (meaning sad saddle).
    Still not ideal snow conditions, but it might be a good base for the rest of the season.
    We need more snow ...

  30. Today I completed my first ski tour of the season at the Christlum above Lake Achensee. The route followed the piste, and early-winter snow already covered the surrounding forest and the higher slopes. 😊

  31. Gruetzi mittenand aus Konkordia Hutte!
    Not a good visibility today, but we made it.
    We are expecting better weather tomorrow.

  32. Do you know the Climbing Gold podcast with Alex Honnold?
    So, the latest episode turned it into Skiing Gold as he welcomed Cody Townsend.
    Ideal podcast to listen to while traveling for the last skiing trip of the season.

  33. Silvretta '25 continued with a ski tour from Jamtalhutte to Kronenjoch and to Ischgl. Long tour (just descend to Ischgl is 19km), but wonderful time. Skiing lines on the other side of Kronenjoch look fantastic. I will there next year.
    Here are some pictures from my son.

  34. Wonderful day in Silvretta today!
    We went to Hinterer Jamsptiz. Skitouring was just amazing today.
    Thank you Jamtal Hutte.

  35. Terrible news from the #Colorado #GrandTraverse (CB to Aspen #skimo race): Race canceled at the last minute!

    Sounds like recent weather changes have made snow completely isothermic (unsafe), river crossings impassible, and evacuation routes inaccessible. Racers were told to go home.

    Hopefully more information to come but my heart goes out to the several people I know personally (and hundreds I don’t) who trained so hard all year for this event.

  36. Dear fellow ski tourers,
    this year's conditions in Slovakia are not good in any way. We have just returned from Tirol where we had a lot of fun despite lower levels of snow as well. I hope you will enjoy a couple of pictures from Stubai (Sommerwandferner).
