Could this be the last lift-serviced skiing in the Helsinki region for me this season? Most ski resorts, such as Swinghill or Kauniainen have already closed... Vihti and Hyvinkää are still going, but not on all days, so today I chose to go to Serena instead of further away Vihti. And I'm away next few days, so when I come back, there may not be anything else than hiking left. But hiking up is always good! Let the season be long :-)

"Mongolia is kind of close, right? Story about an attempt to ski everywhere in the world where there's snow. And in some places where there isn't. On and off-piste skiing on all continents, skiing into craters of live volcanoes, climbing, photography, and travel." The Planetskier blog focuses on skiing, caving, climbing, biking, flying, sauna, and swimming adventures around the world. See the other Planetskier blog articles about skiing, caving, urban exploration, climbing, cycling, flying, swimming, and saunas.
