The cuisine included deeply-appreciated and relished porridge & raisins (Dutch & Italian members, rather bizarrely, adding chocolate powder), tomato soup-couscous & noodles and a South African specialty beverage (rooibos) sharing spoons, bowls and cups as required. A Dane (who could ski) usefully carried the day-pack on a trip up the valley, and a Tibetan demonstrated that yoga-induced flexibility enabled an innovative skiing style. A skiing highlight was an evening trip in almost full-moon and almost cloud-free sub-zero conditions; we also enjoyed seeing groups of ptarmigan at home - as we tried to be - in this magnificently bleak colour-free wintery environment.[/fusiontext][/fusionbuildercolumn][fusionbuildercolumn type="13" layout="13" spacing="" centercontent="no" link="" target="self" minheight="" hideonmobile="small-visibility,medium-visibility,large-visibility" class="" id="" backgroundcolor="" backgroundimage="" backgroundposition="left top" undefined="" backgroundrepeat="no-repeat" hovertype="none" bordersize="1" bordercolor="#ededed" borderstyle="solid" borderposition="left" paddingtop="" paddingright="" paddingbottom="" paddingleft="30px" margintop="" marginbottom="" animationtype="" animationdirection="left" animationspeed="0.3" animationoffset="" last="no"][fusionwidgetarea name="avada-blog-sidebar" titlesize="" titlecolor="" backgroundcolor="" paddingtop="" paddingright="" paddingbottom="" paddingleft="" hideonmobile="small-visibility,medium-visibility,large-visibility" class="" id="" /][/fusionbuildercolumn][/fusionbuilderrow][/fusionbuilder_container]
