It’s a bluebird day as Parkite Rosie Brennan strides up the snow-covered trail alongside a mountain stream. It’s a special place for her. The Dischmatal, or Dischma Valley, winds to the north from Davos, Switzerland, eventually crossing a medieval route over the Scaletta Pass to the Engadin. Standing out is the towering Schwarzhorn, a sentinel along the ridgeline, much like Jupiter Peak back home.
“I like it because it’s a wide valley and gets lots of sun. We call it Sun Valley,” Brennan said.
As a World Cup cross-country ski racer, Brennan’s home is Davos most Decembers. It’s one of the more gorgeous stops on the tour with an elevation much like Park City. Some of her foreign competitors aren’t all that comfortable with the altitude. But it suits Brennan just fine. It’s just like home. Anchored in Europe now, she’ll spend Christmas there next week.
