Last year we had poor snow at the end of March, so for 2013 we decided to go to our freeride session with “Les boys” much earlier, at the beginning of February. It was the right decision, we enjoyed some superbe fresh snow.<\/p>\n
We drove to Padina on Friday evening, in order to be there Saturday morning ready to hit the slopes and maximize the fun. The weather wasn’t really encouraging in the morning, with pour visibility. But sun broke through at the right moment, just as we were getting up to Tataru pass. We enjoied some runs up there, then some more further down on the way back to the hut, planning to come back in the area on Sunday morning as there were still plenty of untouched powdery slopes waiting to be skied.<\/p>\n
ngg_shortcode_0_placeholderDuminic\u0103 diminea\u021b\u0103, \u00eens\u0103, norul z\u0103cea peste vale. P\u00e2n\u0103 se ne dumirim noi cum e cu micul dejun, a \u00eenceput s\u0103 ning\u0103. La \u00eenceput u\u0219urel, apoi s\u0103n\u0103tos, drept pentru care am renun\u021bat la liniile dinspre Strunga, \u0219i am plecat spre Plaiul lui P\u0103cal\u0103, acolo se poate schia o bucat\u0103 bun\u0103 de-a lungul brazilor f\u0103r\u0103 s\u0103 suferi prea mult din cauza \u201dwhite-out\u201d-ului. Urmele din ziua trecut\u0103 erau ca \u0219i \u00eenghi\u021bite de z\u0103pada proasp\u0103t\u0103, a\u0219a c\u0103 am mai beneficiat de un pulver clasa \u00eent\u00e2i. Ninsoarea \u0219i v\u00e2ntul ne-au trimis repede \u00eenapoi la caban\u0103, la ora pr\u00e2nzului \u00eencheiam deja tura.<\/p>\n
Plecarea cu ma\u0219ina de la Padina a fost o aventur\u0103 \u00een sine. Nu at\u00e2t pentru noi, c\u0103 eram utila\u021bi cu o ma\u0219in\u0103 adecvat\u0103, un Land Rover Discovery b\u00e2tr\u00e2n dar \u00eenc\u0103 \u00een putere. Ci pentru ma\u0219inile mici, cu gard\u0103 la sol mic\u0103 \u0219i uneori chiar \u0219i f\u0103r\u0103 lan\u021buri, total lipsite de solu\u021bii \u00een fa\u021ba z\u0103pezii proaspete de peste 40 de cm. Am \u00eempins la ma\u0219ini c\u00e2t n-am \u00eempins \u00een toat\u0103 via\u021ba mea p\u00e2n\u0103 acum, ne-a luat vreo trei ore s\u0103 ajungem de la Padina p\u00e2n\u0103 \u00een asfalt, la Moroieni.<\/p>\n
\u201dLes boys\u201d s-au descurcat foarte bine, fie pe snowboard, fie pe schiuri de tur\u0103 \u00eemprumutate. Am filmat cu dou\u0103 gopro-uri \u0219i cu un mic aparat foto, fiecare \u00een formatul lui. Am combinat rezultatul \u00eentr-un montaj de vreo 13 minute, sper s\u0103 v\u0103 plac\u0103 \u0219i s\u0103 nu v\u0103 frustreze prea tare :-).<\/p>\n
O singur\u0103 frustrare de final: am ajuns acolo pe o z\u0103pad\u0103 impecabil\u0103 \u0219i am plecat c\u00e2nd tocmai se a\u0219eza alta \u0219i mai \u0219i!<\/p>\n
