Great video! Good to see Americans here skiing and making videos of the beautiful Dolomiti! Looking forward to your next one in Madonna di Campiglio. 😊

Thanks for watching and commenting! Love the Dolomites!!!

I've skied all over North America & Europe, at least 50 different resorts. IMHO nothing beats the SellaRonda!!

@@davidwells34 Incredibly scenic ski route for sure! Appreciate you watching and commenting!

Hi again! The orange route is a little better. The ronda is fun but not the best skiing in the area. Try the Alba-Pozza side system. And go to Seceda and the La Longia piste. And if you have really good weateer and good snow, the "Grande guerra" tour is a real adventure! And now you can ski all the way to Cortina and back! Oh i must go back again! This year we had less than perfect weather so the long tours was impossible!

Hello! Thanks for the recommendations. We will try those the next time we get to the Dolomites. We are in love with the Dolomites and will no doubt return to ski more of them!

Hello James... beautiful... beautiful video!! As always, perfect... everything described in detail, ski slopes, lifts, peaks, you can watch for hours. How did you do the Sella Ronda ? In one day ? Was it a weekend? Monday ? Tuesday ?? The routes were sometimes full and sometimes empty again... Your entire stay in the Dolomites was perfect... new snow... weather, sun. I can really watch your videos non-stop. Here, in Winterberg, the snow has almost disappeared... it's sad... I could ride for one day (or rather only 3 hours). Regards

Hello George, Thank you - I really appreciate you! I skied the SellaRonda in about 4:45 minutes on Valentine’s Day (Wednesday February 14). I think some of the busier areas were places where people doing the orange and green SellaRondas got together for a short while. We are back in Idaho. I skied our local ski hill with my Father yesterday. I took my GS skis to ride and I have to tell you even though I haven’t ridden them in two years, it was instant love! So stable, carve perfectly every time. I’ll be bringing them to Europe next winter for sure! Dad and I are headed to Wyoming this morning to ski at Grand Targhee ski resort. It’s supposed to be sunny weather and I’m hopeful to get some good photos and video of the Teton mountains. Next week I’ll ski in Utah - Snowbasin and Alta ski resorts. They are two of my favorite resorts in Utah. Sorry to hear all of your local snow is melting. I guess it’s almost time to switch to Spring and summer activities. I’m lucky here that all of the ski hills are in the best shape they have been all winter so I should finish the season with excellent conditions. Take care! Next week’s video will be SkiRama Dolomiti’s Madonna Di Campiglio ski resort.

so, you are already home. What was the return journey like? Tiring ? How many hours does the return journey take? From Vienna? Or from Munich? New York ? ....... So now ski in America!!! It seems to me that these are two different worlds. Europe (Alps) has problems with the climate, there is usually very little snow. But you were lucky - the Dolomites got snow, there was sun and that was the best!!! Thanks to this I can watch your beautiful videos!!! Thank you !! But you are lucky, as you can see: in Switzerland (Matterhorn) there was beautiful weather, in France (Chamonix) there was beautiful weather... in Kitzbühl there was beautiful weather!!! Now it's Rocky Mountain's turn. America, 5-6 meters of champagne powder, slopes often not groomed .... Wide allmountain skis . But you are well equipped!! And I'm waiting for your new beautiful videos - to get to know the beautiful ski world that has interested me for 55 years. Regards Georg

Yes. We are already home. The journey was long - 22 hours. Flew from Venice to Paris, then to Salt Lake City and then to Boise. Had a great time skiing in Wyoming with my Dad today. Sunshine for our weather. I head to Utah Sunday to ski next week. Try to send me an email when you get a chance. Take care!

22 hours traveling???? It's terrible.... Now you would have to take a vacation after your trip!! Have you been skiing with your father all day? I admire and salute your father!! I don't think I can ski all day long anymore. I'm not in good shape anymore (I'm 77 soon!!!!). On the other hand, I lack training... But the last few years have been difficult... warm winters without snow, two or three years of the Corona epidemic (skiarenas were closed, etc.). I will try to send you some photos, I hope I will succeed. Unfortunately, my PC and my mobile phone are giving me problems. But - I will try, first maybe a photo, then maybe a video. Kind regards

@@user-mf6mx6fj4m Dad did ski as long as I did, but he stayed on the easier terrain while I filmed the mountain tour video. You and my Dad must be near the same age. He too will be 77 soon! I’m off to ski in Utah for a bit. Planning to ski Snowbasin (quite scenic and fun), and Alta. Take care!

Hello, You achieved a very good time!! ?? Bravo. No pause? There were no problems with orientation? I was only in the Dolomites once (2020) - but I didn't visit Sella Ronda. Maybe I'll try 2025?? Yes, it's a pity that winter has ended here. I wanted to improve my carving so much!!! A year ago, March 2023, was cold and we were still in Winterberg on April 10. It was OK on a narrow snow carpet about 40 m wide and about 30 cm of snow. Do you have an email address? (on your you tube channel ??). Can I send you some photos? Greetings for the whole family . Lots of fun in the American snow!!! George

Hi George, yes - my email is: dukeoutdoors@msn.com Would love to see some photos! There was only that one spot on the SellaRonda I mentioned in the video that was a little confusing (had to pull out the paper map to stay on course). Everywhere else was signed really well. My filming likely added 45 minutes to the time required, but other than that - no stops. Even though it’s a lot of lifts and runs, some were very short. I’m sure you could do it! Maybe if we time it right, you and I could do the orange route together in 2025 (as long as you don’t mind being on camera ;-). It’s definitely probable we will see more of the Dolimiti SuperSki resorts next season. Take care! Bed time here.

Helo James.... I'm very sorry that I'm having problems with my photos and videos. Maybe you get some doubles? But is my phone or PC already old? I have to buy something new. Greetings Georg

@@YouDecideIsItWorthIt Hello James, yes, I received your replies... Thank you. I'm glad you like it. I don't have such beautiful scenery from the Alps or the Dolomites. In recent winters, there was no (or little) snow and health problems meant that I couldn't "train". David, our son, spent 2-3 days skiing in Winterberg in winter - that's very little. Not enough to carve well. Thank you again for your nice comments!! Regards
