It has been a great week of deep powder skiing for Nicky Pucher and Reinhold Traussnig of Kärnten, Austria, with fresh daily snowfalls, deep powder and the Christmas cheer. So how do you end the perfect week? Well, Reinhold knew how. He proposed to his treeski buddy and long-time girlfriend, Nicky on the last run of the trip – Chelsey's Delight on New Years Eve. From your powder family in Blue River, we wish Nicky and Reinhold a lifetime of happiness and endless powder”. Congratulations.
