After that first trip to Fichtelgebirge I really needed some quality snowboarding... The first trip with the Frankfurt Ski, Sports and Socials Club turned out to be just that! :) We went to Hochgurgl, at 2150m, in Austria.
The people were great - John the Trip Captain, Victoria the beautiful English (!) with her off-pist friends, Mike my silent cool roomy and all the others (me and names...).
The hotel Angerer Alm made this trip to the most luxurious I have ever been to with its relax, its five course dinner and beautiful view over the valley.
The snow was great, but the sight non-existent, due to low clouds. Off-pist was good, after all we couldn't go far from the pistes. The skiing stretches up to 3080m so there was good powder. The place wouldn't do for a longer trip, though, the variety of slopes wasn't that great. You could take the cabin (or bus) to Obergurgl but that place is much lower and windier and more crowded, so don't.
