Whiteout is when everything is white, just white. The white cloudy sky and the white snow grow together. The contours of the terrain become invisible. In some Winterlandic dialects, the word for whiteout is "snowdark". This is a very good and descriptive word, like in the dark, you see basically nothing; nothing but white, or sometimes a little grayish or blueish.Skiing in whiteout is an interesting experience. You need to ski somewhat differently, more precautious. When you can't see the terrain, you need to feel it, with your feet and your body. And you feel the terrain at the moment you're there, no pre-warning, no time to plan ahead, you must react immediately, and correctly. It's exciting and a little scary at the same time.
