Ski Trips in February

Fellhorn Austria/Germany





Montafon Austria




Finally...some skiing! Eric and I heard the forecast was for sun, so we went skiing at Obersdorf (Fellhorn) on Feb 21st. Fellhorn straddles Germany and Austria. We rode the gondola from the valley on the Austrian side, then skied parts of Austria and Germany. We had a great time with some powder, sunshine, and great views. Horrible bumper to bumper traffic getting out of the area.

On Feb 28th, we had another sunshine day forecast, with some snow the day prior, so Eric & Cory joined me as we headed to the Montafon area (Silveretta) in Austria close to the Switzerland border. We weren't the only ones going as traffic was real ugly when the autobahn changed to a 2 lane road (bumper to bumper). Had A+ weather and conditions, despite hearing the snow depth is about half of the usual amount.
