Mountain blogging, airplane edition

I hadn't expected the plane to fly directly over the alpine peaks. It was quite impressive to see, all that snow and not a road or another sign of human civilization for miles. And this was all between Innsbruck and Munich, which lie not all that far from one another.
This was, I believe, New York State. A ski resort, dependent on its snow cannons to keep people on the slopes. We flew over several of these, and they reminded one of the Nazca Lines in Peru.
