Planetskier: Kauniainen is melting!

Kauniainen ski hill is melting! Just a few days ago it was almost completely skiable, but now... just two plots of snow left.

Another local skier, Jussi Vuokko, skied the hill on May 10, and made a comparison to 2020, the situation was much better. In 2020, there was just a t wo meter plot of snow left. What a remarkable difference!

The good news about this year though, is that one the plots of snow left now is a big mound... it will surely last until June... but what about July?

On and off-piste skiing on all continents, skiing into craters of live volcanoes, climbing, photography, and travel."
