Life in the snow                                                     

There is lots to do outside even with temperatures below freezing except maybe going swimming.

 
Barbecue 
We all got hungry when this family started barbecuing their dinner. This is well possible even with ten degrees centigrade below. This converted washing machine steel drum perfectly serves as a cheap source of heat on long winter nights outside. Most people however add internal heat by nipping on punches or toddys. 
Sunbathing 
Well covered and sheltered from the wind by a manhigh snow fence this couple enjoys the sun. The kids back home can't believe it.
 
Reading 
This young champ has broken his leg on his first day of his ski trip. Now he has to rest at home and spends the time reading about dad's hobby.
The only good thing about this: He can do it outside - well packed in of course. 
Skiing 
One of the common sports, cross country skiing can be done all along the valley floor. There are miles and miles of prepared tracks. Here Patrick is misusing his downhill skies on the way to the ski lift. It is a perfect sunny day but freezing cold.
Walking and Hiking
People who don't ski can take long hikes alongside the cross country tracks and enjoy the magnificent alpine winter scenery.
 

How many people do you think live in this motorhome?

A group of motorhomers from Berlin gathers here for years. They have really made it comfortable for themselves.
 
It's a tough job but somebody's got to do it
