Natives News 195	11 January 2008
Hi there, Although the New Year has seen plenty of snow in many resorts, there's been tragedy too, with fatalities in Garmisch, Tignes, Breckenridge and Grindelwald already. Let's never forget that when we're in the mountains, it's nature that's in charge. Stay aware, stay safe. The Natives Team
