    Very nice. Some pretty incredible terrain on that mountain.

    Can any French speakers give the gist of what the guy at the end of the video was saying? Je ne parle pas français.

    It's a war of the mind and we're armed to the teeth.

    Not word by word.
    The guy begins disagreeing with prohibitions about skiing out of bounds...
    "we here in La Grave are against that, it would also mean to forbid high sea sailing, rock climbing and so on, all this for public health reasons...
    People needs this kind of things, they work for the whole year, and they need to do things where they put their heart into, where dangers is a thing to be accounted for, but it is not uncommon and it makes people feel better, contributing to the mental health of people.
    We here in La Grave think that this kind of rdangerous recreational activity is important for the people. We also think it should be seen as something that the health department should pass to people" (like it were a drug or time off at a spa)

    Monty Python's version of the cougar phenomenon:
    "This is a frightened city. Over these houses, over these streets hangs a pall of fear. Fear of a new kind of violence which is terrorizing the city. Yes, gangs of old ladies attacking defenseless, fit young men".

    Are you considering a trip? Don't forget, Cham in January.

    You're not the only one. After chatting with some mates in LL, 49% of me is scared shitless and 51% of me thinks it would be the best trip ever to ski around wearing a harness and carrying an ax while following around a bunch of nutty sweeds having a go at lines that "might be a wee bit dodgy".

    Seriously, we'll talk. I'm looking at a winter of underemployment with certain Euro possibilities. I've already started using my crevase rig hanging from the rafters of my garage. Cletus has expressed interest, me need to talk to mad scientist boy.
