Summer powder skiing in Austria - the snow arrives around Innsbruck

For those already missing the white peaks (myself certainly included) the last couple of days have provided a great tonic. Snow as far down as Fulpmes in the Stubai Valley in June is not unknown but may not be welcomed by all. I went up to Axamer Lizum today and the lower ski pistes were totally covered. The grazing cows and goats looked a tad miffed but there was even a ski tourer tackling the new snow. A colleague of ours went to see a football match in snow in the Stubai Valley whilst the glaciers will be serving up some epic summer powder skiing. And regarding the previous post, no footsteps equal a day of powder missed by Josh - tragic!
