The first choice fell on resort Planneralm which got only two chair lifts and three   T-bars. I have found it when I was surfing a google earth and the photos did not look bad, so we tried it. Although we went there with the infomation that there were last snowfall before 3 days, we were hoping that we gonna find some powder.

The first runs sudka but when we were exploring the resort more in deep. It did not look so bad. We were able to find a nice lines with untouched powder. If is rider able to hike up about 10mins, he will be able to find a sick lines here. Even for skialpinism is realy good to be here. We had a great powder snow and especially on the ridge above the resort we found the structure that we have not ever seen. The size recalled the shape of butterfly wings. We are fairly satisfied with what we've found out, the terrains, the weather was cool so dominated satisfaction. Just Mojmír was totaly suffering, because when we were last week at Pustevny, he had punch his back and did not recover from that accident. Because we made this trip like an expedition around resorts where we we not, we used our knowledge of friend Vlasto, who is in these parts, after all, home, and could advise us where to go next.

Vlasto gave us a hot tip to resort Galsterberg, which is not well known. There is only such a small cabin, chair lift and coule of T-bars. The terrains are not so vast and almost everything is rutted. The avalache situation is nor realy good so we did not go too far to backcountry under the Pleschnitzzinken peak. That it was a good decision, you could see here . This has happened on the next peak Hauser Kaibling.

We have got our the last day to decided where to go next. Originally we wanted to go to Wurzeralm, but we left this idea and we are heading to Krippenstein. For so long we wanted to try it, so we went there. This decision appeared as totally wrong. For tourists, the conditions were great, blue sky, beautiful views etc. but for freerider's there were missing at least meter of snow and two meters at the top. I will go there only when there will be at least 3m of snow and I will got a guide. So I will not say anythig more in here. We packed up the gear and went home.
