Heavy Snow in the Hills

I got a text from a friend in Chitral earlier this week reporting four to five feet of snowfall.  When the snow gets this deep there is not much you can do except muck about in it. In the Kalasha Valleys clan lines up against clan to play the came of 'chitk gal' a sort of turbo-golf, where the ball keeps on getting lost in the snow, fights break out and the losers have to kill an oxen to feed the winners.
