The ski book: from the magic of gliding through the snow

It is not good for the skiing holiday in the mountains in these weeks.In the German-speaking Alpine region from Berchtesgaden to Oberstdorf, the 2G Plus rule in cable cars applies.The neighboring country Austria is again in the lockdown.In Switzerland, there is a test obligation before and after entering it itself for completely vaccinated, and in Italian South Tyrol, the seven-day incidence is more than 620 based on 100.000 inhabitants.These are the very worst prerequisites to plan the upcoming winter vacation.

Since the pandemic's possibilities of skiing including hut fun and après-Ski are severely restricted, a replacement must urgently be found to immerse yourself in the winter world.There is a new book for all skiers, snowboarders or cross -country skiers at the right time.Under the simple title "Das SkiBuch", the Marmota Maps publisher from Hamburg, after the great success of the "Alpenbuch" in the same design, published a new work that can hardly be outdated in terms of information about the skiing holiday.

There are hardly any texts for reading, but instead 1000 infographics, illustrations and maps.No info avalanche rolls over this visual path to one, but you can get to never overloaded eleven themed areas: ski history, ski technology, snowboard, skiing, skiing, ski areas, environment, competitive sports, touring, alpine dangers, tourism and economy as well as ski culture.

As the author, the editors Spiegel and Lana Brag were able to win the Skibauer Steffen Heycke, who has been dealing with snow sports for almost 50 years.When leafing in the "ski book" you get stuck after a few pages, deepens into the graphics and learns so much new, unknown and strange things.

The only downside?This picture book promotes longing to finally stand in snow landscapes on the boards and toast it down.
