Nice images.

Not a lot of snow I see.  Skiing must have been terrible.

You can't get close to the snow while flying... it's not practical to do your approach over mountains which are over 5000 meters when the airport is at some 1000 meters

To be honest, i turned the time to winter... only way to get to much snow there, and hopefully get rid of the horrible amount of fog FS seems to generate in this area for some unknown reason (Smog or sandstorms?)
