mattlucas 0 Posted September 5, 2005 Share Posted September 5, 2005 I have never skied in an exotic place. Africa seems pretty good. There are a few peaks on that continent that hold glaciers. Hmmm. I wouldn't mind getting into the Eastern European peaks. You just hike up for that sort of thing Yama? Link to post Share on other sites
Yuki's Passion 1 Posted September 5, 2005 Share Posted September 5, 2005 yeah, was bichting about it too...a group of 4 Japanese college kids and I kept saying how they need to install a lift there Id love to go to S. America! Link to post Share on other sites
mattlucas 0 Posted September 5, 2005 Share Posted September 5, 2005 Can you actually turn or do you just go straight? Up on Norikura last month I hiked up above the snow onto the loose volcanic rocks. I tried turning but ended up just going straight. Link to post Share on other sites
