Ortisei, February 2012

Hi all,

As the 11 City Skating tour fever in Holland slowly gets to its climax ( will it go on or not!), I am enjoying my yearly wintersport vacation in the beautiful area of Val Gerdena. The start of the week was freezingly cold with daily temparatures of -15C, but now (Wednesday 8 Feb) the temperature in the mountains dropped to only -7 and it is sunny all day. Although the cold we were almost all the week able to have our lunch on the mountain in the outside, just keep out of the wind and in the sunshine!
Tomorrow is Seela Ronda time. A ski tour of about 65 km around the Sella Massive. Mostly it is done clockwise, but this time we go the other way around.


On the picture both routes of the Ronda are signed. Red and Green. We will start in the left upper corner of the picture and go counterclockwise around the Sella Massive (following the green line).
Saturday will be the day of my trip back to Holland.

CU soon,
Arjan
