Engelberg
Saturday morning and we were straight in the car down to Central Switzerland for the first powder weekend of the 06/07 snow season.
Visibility wasn't great on Saturday, but there were one or two clear breaks allowing us to find the good stuff (in about a foot of fresh) under the Jochpass where not many other people had had the opportunity to ski things out.
Sunday was a total bluebird, so we took the opportunity to ski down the front of the Titlis glacier. This involved some careful negociating (read: straightlining) of ice couloirs, but we were rewarded with some lovely little pockets of snow, again about a foot of fresh or possibly a bit more in places.
Melissa's skiing has totally transformed over the course of a month and she's literally learned in one weekend how to ski off-piste properly.
