Urban skiing is mind-blowing and amazing to watch

(CBS) - It's the holiday season, and the holidays tend to come with a lot of snow, which is kind of double-edged sword of good and bad, but really great if you have the option to go skiing. Alas, those of us who live in major metropolitan cities don't have such options... or do we?

There is a lot of great setup that is worthwhile to watch, but things get truly amazing starting at about 2:08 into the video.

I've got to say, the first two minutes were beautiful, calm and relaxing, but once things kicked into gear - wow!

The incredible video was posted by Vimeo user Sherpas Cinema and is just a small segment directed by Dave Mossop & JP Auclair from the feature-length film "All.I.Can."
