Saw the making of that on the Discovery Channel - very interesting....

That's outrageous!
Is it fake snow, or is the whole facility refrigerated??

Oh what will we spend all our oil money on next??

On closer examination, I guess it's real cold snow.
Everybody is wearing jackets (ski outerwear)

And I bet the inside of that Bear smells like a camel's arse!

I like the indoor chairlift. Looks like they have 2 runs. The one to the left of the lift looks steeper than the one to the right.

The Golf Channel [yes - the Golf Channel] did a feature on this during the recent Dubai Desert Classic. It was odd, but interesting.
