Not the first thought that comes to mind, but this is an #environmental problem, not just about skiing or a local economy:
"Ropes once used to mark out the piste hang in tatters and bits of plastic are falling off a pylon. The old sheds at each end of the ski lifts often still contain transformers, asbestos, motor oils and greases. Over time, these substances seep into the soil and…

Partly bright and sunny, but fully cold and with generous amounts of wind. “Brisk” doesn’t even begin to do it justice. Still, I am a freak and love this weather. It felt good to be out moving. #TeamShorts of course.

My running stats: 7.02 km in 51:41 for an average pace of 7:21/km

A picturesque river scene with gently flowing water reflecting sunlight. Dense trees line the riverbanks under a backdrop of clouds and a partially visible sun. The atmosphere is serene and natural, showcasing the beauty of the landscape.

This black-and-white image captures a serene and somewhat mysterious winter scene. A light layer of snow covers a hilly path, with tire or foot tracks leading up the slope, creating a sense of movement and direction. The path is flanked by leafless trees and evergreens, their branches dusted with snow. The fog is thick, enveloping the landscape and creating a soft, muted atmosphere. The fog obscures the background, adding a sense of depth and mystery to the scene. The overall mood is calm and …
