So after hearing about all the snow and winter extravaganza's taking place in the Midwest, we decided to go on our own winter adventure. We headed up to Lecco with a few friends for a one day ski and snowboard trip. Waking up bright and early to catch a train at 8 am, we arrived in Lecco 45 min later. We then took a bus, shuttle, and gondola ride up to the mountain. After messing around with everyone getting rentals, we finally got on the slopes around noon. The weather couldn't have been better and the scenery was absolutely beautiful. We were completely surrounded by vast mountains, stretching as far as the eye can see. The runs themselves were decent, nothing special, but a good place for beginners and rusty folk like myself. I'm hoping sometime in the next month we will be able to head to the big mountains North of Torino for a few days. However, with this sunny 50 degree weather we're having, the snow might not be around much longer. (oh I'm so bad)
