Did you fight them?
Skied mid station Midi 2 laps of waist deep fluff up high and slop down low.
Did the petit Envers later - Bottomless wind deposited. Scary and very hard to make headway. Had to pole all the lower angle stuff. Should be good when it clears.
We told them to wait their turn and asked if they were carrying avy gear, a dumbfounded look emerged form their faces:nonono2: It was clear some of them would ski in above us so let them go first.
Avy conditions weren't great by the end of the day, a very strong wind was building up a soft slab. I set off a small 4m 10cm thick slab off a moderate slope which was warning enough.
On a sad note, a Finn died in an Avalanche off Rendl today :(

I'm not sure I have legs anymore. I stop for a bit midday and they return.
more snow in town tonight :)
shit, what is the body count for st anton this season 4 or 5?
Back from La Grave this morning. DEEP snow - amongst the best I've had :biggrin:
Hi Tom, did you ski skiers right of left of the cable car? Thinking of going up there tomorrow.
Today Flegere was off the hook. Like the two previous days :FIREdevil
Line below cable car is now in condition, yesterday still a few rocks but light pow, totally untracked, today was more filled in but got a bit heavy towards the bottom, just two tracks before us.... love finishing the day in flegere with that run.
Got one last day at Grands Montets after screwing up my airport transfer and having to reschedule my flight home. Powder all day long and no lines.
Powders, we probably crossed paths 2 days ago on the L'index as we were lapping it all day.
Snow is sweet.
Good to meet another maggot on the hill today.
i'll be around thurs-sat/sun.
probably treesking somewhere near you in the valais and maybe ski cham on sunday if this ever clears. (and i get over the forclaz)
we have yet to decide which über-secret spot we'll hit.
Snowline moved up to about 1800m.:cussing: :cussing: :cussing:
as expected.
im glad it didn't go up above 2000.
I took this early yesterday morning... just before having to dash off to Paris (ugh) for work

Must call the guys in la G* later must be dumping there.
Like the sluffalanche at the end!
Damn rain screwed everything under 2000m here in Nendaz .
Will get in touch with some of you guys when I get a chance to sneak out from work.
got a bit ugly today here - snow level was 1700 ish around 9, rose up to about 1900 noonish, then dropped down again - alternating graupel/rain in the village right now.
Got the first Trittkopf tram (with 5 others) - heavy up top, but fun. The rufibahn not so much - everything closed or sketchz.
Dunno about the body count, but I think the newspaper said 2 swedes died in the same place a couple of weeks ago :(
dont know what to think :p :nonono2: :eek: :biggrin: :eek: :cussing:
