No snow? No problem for these hardcore skiers. They simply ski on rocks:
The warmest weather in half a century means that many European ski resorts are without snow later in the year than any time in recent memory. Some, dedicated skiers are turning to rocks to get their fix.
In Europe, there's a shortage of snow this winter.
That's meant people in Austria have had to come up with another way to get in their skiing fix. They turned to rocks.
"At the moment we're having problems because it's too cold to make artificial snow and real snow hasn't started falling yet," said one Austrian skiier, who'd just come down a rock quarry.

With proper precautions it seems like a way to get fun out of a mountain during the non winter months.
