    No chance of building a shielding snow wall? That would only be
    effective in a slight breeze, mind.

    If they've got that much snow I'd be thinking igloos over the tents.

    Not the first time our chaps have had to dig tunnels in that neck of the
    woods.

    I await reports on Tom, Dick and Harry.

    Using the patented Mavis Beacon "Hunt&Peck" Technique, Chris H
    Don't be fucking ridiculous, there's no *way* he'll have fitted a
    vaulting-horse on a Tenere.

    Umm... Is there?

    Not only lace up boots, but square toes to fit into the skis. Christ
    they were a nightmare to break in, those boots.

    Heh - the earliest ski developments used animal fur underneath to give
    directional friction. A thin-haired old fell might have been better than
    klister under such conditions . . .

    the road and sank up to my bollocks. I woke up this morning and my tent
    was caving in from the weight of the snow."
