Trentino

The Canalone Neri on the Cima Tosa is probably one of the most perfect gullies in the Alps. 900 vertical meters, north-facing and steep throughout, the gully is also located in a very impressive landscape!

The winner of our big PG photo competition, Leander Nardin, had the chance to compete in the King of Dolomites on February 20, 2014 with a wild card. His team impressed with an unusual idea and almost managed to get a place on the podium.

From February 22nd to 24th, the sleepy Trentino village of San Martino di Castrozza at Passo Rolle became the base camp for the predominantly Italian-speaking freeride community. Ten pro teams, consisting of two well-known freeriders and a photographer, as well as lots of WANNABES and amateur photographers dropped, turned, photographed and smiled on the two days in February. All on the hunt for the freeride shot of the future king of the Dolomites. Contest participant Hanna Finkel was there for PowderGuide.

From February 22 to 24, 2013, the famous vacation village of San Martino di Castrozza at the foot of the Palat Group in the Trentino Dolomites will be transformed into a freeride Eldorado at its finest.

Still in the light of our headlamps, we head west down into the Valle dei Concei early this morning. The descent is brutally steep in extremely narrow forest. Due to the enormous snow load, hundreds of trees have fallen and require constant climbing maneuvers...
