Had gone to the ski fields with a group for a week. It was like a package deal where the accomedation etc were all run through the same people. J from school was there but the rest of the people were randoms. A lot of them were European tourists who were very excited about skiing.
We arrived first at a large cabin/dorm which was where we were all staying and unloaded our bags. The group instructor/guide told us to put on good sturdy shoes because we would be trail walking/hiking as the activity for the rest of the day.
There was an anticlimax here from everyone because we had all been really pumped to go skiing but realized that we didn't have enough time to get any good time on the slopes in before it got dark. The instructor told us today was a setup day and we would get our skiing gear on the way back that night.
Brief memory of being out in the snow. It was perfectly powder white, icy but with plenty of grip under the feet. I looked back over a hill we had covered and it was a picture perfect white hill with a few scattered alpine trees, nicely topped with snow coatings.

Upon writing this dream down I suddenly got recall of a dream scene I had a fairly long time ago. It was on a big farm and the hill side was all spinifexy. An old ute drove down the dirt road passed me. The forest line across the hill top was really dense. A gate was further down the road.
I don't know why but it has left an impression and just suddenly surfaced.
