Oh yes, there are many Dutch tourists in Winterberg. The mountains aren't very high (highest point is 840m) but there was more than enough good quality fresh snow for the skiers. And they have snow cannons (?), just in case.

Lots of snow there, even off-piste. Yeah, the Dutchies don't even have your Ardennes. By the way, I see that there are some actual mountains in the Ardennes! Not exactly le plat pays.

Ooooo, Lugg! Your gorgeous pictures could almost make me like winter. If forced, I'd have to say the first and the last ones in the sequence are my favorites, but I'm knocked out by all of them.

Stunning Lugg! I contemplated taking my camera out this morning but I had my big coat, big scarf, leather gloves, thick fluffy socks, wellies, bobble hat, mask and visor on top of my indoor clothes...so it was all I could do to hold the dog's lead

Lovely photos. I will have to wait until we get deeper into winter to get a chance of any similar photos in Paris. It is freezing in the entire country (particularly in the south, even the Côte d'Azur and Marseille), but we remain at a grim but unfreezing temperature of 1° in Paris.

Thanks for moving the photos - don't know how I missed the existing thread. I contemplated taking my camera out this morning but I had my big coat, big scarf, leather gloves, thick fluffy socks, wellies, bobble hat, mask and visor on top of my indoor clothes...so it was all I could do to hold the dog's lead Not sure how you got out the door at all.

Lugg as always your photography is outstanding! The composition fabulous!
I agree with your choice of pics from Kerouac. Two in particular have that old impressionist feel, even a Lowry look. I found a walk through the snow as it was falling, - on YouTube. What I loved was that it started at Metro Lamarck-Caulaincourt and the hotel I stayed at twice, then walked all the way up to the vineyard and then came down the hill again taking in the pedestrianized African market in Rue Dejean. I want be taken there on a photo essay with Kerouac. It's practically on his doorstep so fingers crossed.

We had diverging forecasts for today yesterday afternoon. One TV forecaster predicted ~2" of snow for this morning; the other predicted it'd be too warm to snow and it'd rain. The latter called it correctly.

Both are so pretty, but I love the 2nd one, with that little touch of red.
