MountainSki.eu concerns on different activites connected with snow or ice in mountains. Main activities are skialpinism and splitboard.
I started in November 11, 2009 this winter season (Beginning of ski season in Slovenian ski resort Krvavec). It could be interesting to visit the same place at the end of ski season. Finishing work in Ljubljana on Friday April 30 in the afternoon we stayed for a moment at Krvavec, where we walked shortly and on skins. We skied one short couloir and sk-slope.
I was working in Rijeka, Croatia, just after Easter. On the way to the next stop in Zagreb, I digress from the main road just a few kilometres and came to the „seaside“ ski paradise Platak. Obviously, ski lifts did not work, but there were a lot of snow on the slopes, the surrounding woods and rocky gutters from 20–130 cm! You can just imagine perfect day starting with a morning skiing on the snow and then 40 minutes to ride down to the sea and go for swimming.
During our skialpinism and snb trip to Iran (Skialpinism and snowboarding in Iran in April 2010 – list or results) we started in the area of Tochal (Trekking aclimatization to Tochal during skialpinism and snowboarding trip to Iran in April 2010) and followed to the area of the second highest Iranian peak Alam Kooh (4850 m). We were the first foreigners in 2010 there. Trip was supported by KAMA and Tilak.
First two days in Iran (Skialpinism and snowboarding in Iran in April 2010 – list or results) we spent with acclimatisation at Tochal (3982 m). We got little below Square of Mountaineers and we started walking from the altitude approximately 1650 m. We walked through the narrow river valley surrounded by many restaurants, as this is the party area of Teheran. It is hard to imagine, how it looks here during flood. Trip was supported by KAMA and Tilak.
We returned from Iran on Monday morning, April 26, 2010. We spent marvelous two weeks with skis and snowboards in Iranian mountains and historical cities as Esfahan and Kashan. Original plans were adapted to not ideal weather. We skied from several 4000 meter high peaks, and Žrout, Martin and Mišo snowboarder climbed to the summit of Damavand (5671 m). Followingly they skied and snowboarded down from about 5470 meters. We had a short swimming break in Caspian sea. We also founded out that several glaciers living in 2004 are gone (Iran skiing 2004). Sulfuric hot springs were excellent too. In my point of view, whole trip was nice, but participants would have different opinion. The trip was supported by KAMA and Tilak.
