Randalf asked in a previous post how skiing differed in the German Alps.  Well the main difference I found was with the view. (That first picture is from the top of Jenner<\/a> in Berchtesgaden.)  The alps are absolutely beautiful and quite more jagged than the Cascades that I’m used to.  It hadn’t snowed in a few of days, so I didn’t sense any obvious snow difference (powdery, wet, dry, etc… honestly I’m not sure I’d be able to tell anyway).  Where we were the ski areas tended to be smaller than the ones around here.  There are several towns in the valley–including ours–and several ski areas of differing difficulty.  Almost all of Jenner’s runs are marked as intermediate, though some felt harder to me, the true intermediate skier.  Oh yeah, the last major difference: You can get awesome beer at any and every ski hut.<\/p>\n

Here’s another picture to whet your appetite.  This one was taken on the slopes looking towards the alps.<\/p>\n
