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 :-)

The last man to walk on the moon has recommended that future astronauts learn Nordic ski technique as an efficient method of travelling across the Moon's surface.
During his visit in 1972, Harrison “Jack” Schmitt experimented with the 'Toe Push' technique used by cross-country skiers and achieved speeds of around 12kph (7.5mph) making him the 'fastest man on the Moon' as a result...
Skiing Astronauts
Quote:
Once the permanently manned Moon base planned by Nasa for 2024 is up and running, however, astronauts will get the opportunity to enjoy some out-of-this-world slopes.
Dr Schmitt said: “There is vertical relief of 2,100 metres (7,000ft) at Taurus-Littrow.”

news flash, extreme alert, dashing neon one piece suits to make a big comeback!
Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?
