Tomas Olsson and Greg Nieuwenhuys have recently started their blogs on EveryTrail. They have at least two things in common:

1) In 2004 they both skied from the summit of Cho Oyu, the world's 6th highest mountain
2) They both spend as much time as possible on their skis

Tomas is preparing his Everest expedition in the spring of 2006, while Greg is focussing on the Alps right now.

Welcome Tomas and Greg! We will follow you closely.
