Then it was close to 3m of snow! Powder was amazing, perhaps even too soft for skis. Those in front where falling through the snow to the waist :-) Now must be great when snow has settled and become harder.

beautiful shot. So much snow. This is the dream of every skier. I see a group of skiers enjoing this extraordinary and a little bit dangerous experience.What about the avalanche risk index?
Thanks for the picture

Thanks very much cedad! And you welcome for the picture! There 3m of snow here but don't know what would be official avalanche risk index. My guess is not that high on sides that are not steep (2 maybe) but on steeper slopes cloud be even 5! This was amazing powder; it was so hard to go anywhere. Even with snow shoes you would go below knees! Could have been too soft for skis, maybe even for board. But once snow settles Komna is paradise for tour and off piste skiing.

Seen some good winter photos on SP.

But this one re defines the standard.

Mind blowingly good. Thanks for sharing it with us all.

Thanks very much Bryan! I love the photo but never thought it would draw this much attention and positive reaction. Otherwise would have shared it much earlier. But that's funny side of it; not knowing what people will like :-)

Cheers,

"Nothing in this world can take the place of persistence. Talent will not; nothing is more common than unsuccessful people with talent. Genius will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb. Education will not; the world is full of educated derelicts. Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent. The slogan "press on" has solved and always will solve the problems of the human race."   --Calvin Coolidge
