Log in to snowHeads to make it MUCH better! Registration's totally free, of course, and makes snowHeads easier to use and to understand, gives better searching, filtering etc. as well as access to 'members only' forums, discounts and deals that U don't even know exist as a 'guest' user. (btw. 50,000+ snowHeads already know all this, making snowHeads the biggest, most active community of snow-heads in the UK, so you'll be in good company)..... When you register, you get our free weekly(-ish) snow report by email. It's rather good and not made up by tourist offices (or people that love the tourist office and want to marry it either)... We don't share your email address with anyone and we never send out any of those cheesy 'message from our partners' emails either. Anyway, snowHeads really is MUCH better when you're logged in - not least because you get to post your own messages complaining about things that annoy you like perhaps this banner which, incidentally, disappears when you log in :-)

SHAAG charity event. Smut, filth and perhaps naked snowHeads.

 Poster: A snowHead
Poster: A snowHead
A group of snowHeads have decided to take part in a charity event.
"What's so special about that?" I hear you ask.

Well, this is a UK based charity that specialises in providing respite holidays for families fighting cancer as well as funding research into the health providing aspects of being involved in mountain based sporting activities.

The team:
ScarpaTheAvalanchePoodle
kooky
flangesax - both of them.
Lots more to come.

We are also working on a fancy dress element. We will provide the choices of costume, you simply pay to see photos of us doing runs in them. There are rumours going around that kooky will ski a run clad in nothing but a pair of snowHead buffs.

SHAAG tackle Mount Everest.

Set up by a team of skiing and snowboard enthusiasts, all of whom have lost a family member or a friend to cancer, Ski 4 Cancer is primarily a provider of alpine based respite breaks for British families affected by cancer. We also make grants to UK based care institutions and support research into the positive effects of exercise (e.g. skiing) and how it can help with cancer prevention and recovery.

On Tuesday the 11th of March 2014, the SnowHeads Austrian Adventures Gang (also known as SHAAG!) are attempting to ski the vertical height of Mount Everest in just one day.
Their challenge will take place in the Austrian ski resort of Zauchensee.
This is a BIG challenge. Mount Everest stands at 29,029 feet or 8,848 metres above sea level.

That's as high as most airlines fly or the height of 3,400 household staircases!
Please sponsor the team to complete the challenge and leave your words of encouragement below!
Thank you for your support.

Oh god, there will be many, many runs from the top of the mountain to the bottom that day. How embarrassing could it be? Embarassed

ScarpaTheAvalanchePoodle, I do seem to remember chatting about various costume designs incorporating the iconic snowHeads buff. I recall mention of a mankini. Only one snowHead came to mind as being brave/stupid enough to actually wear one. I wonder who that might have been... Twisted Evil

I saw that done in Austria, one evening with floodlit skiing. The local ski club did it, and extremely tedious it was, too, watching them go round even a shortish draglift. Pedantica, Yes, you are probably right about CAF - just force of habit. I have a monthly Direct Debit which probably means I actually give more than I would if doing it ad hoc as the months come round so fast! I should probably change the arrangement, but for the moment, that's the way it is.

Megamum, the weather forecast is for minus and snow so I think skiing in a buff may not quite be my idea of "fun"……it´s a case of grit yer teef, stuff some ski socks down there and get on with it Shocked

Do not fear. I am planning on giving a series of in-gondola lectures on the history of blister treatments, taking in the development of the blister plaster and perhaps even broadening onto spray on skin.
