    The jewel in the crown of Courmayeur is the Skyway Monte Bianco cable car but it’s South facing so needs a decent layer of fresh on top of what will now be a transformed surface layer.

From the top you have the standard route back down the glacier past the mid stations or the route down the Vallée Noir to Cham and get the bus back.

    Polska (south) has pretty amazing enduro/trails, DH is soso. way better than esp. austrian/german alps actually (outside the ressort highways).

    Been a sighting of Baz. Rumour has it, his wife caught him forcing himself on a poor young Ukrainian chamber maid. She left back to their country retreat in the Sandringham estate to tell Camilla what a bastard Baz had been again.
    Baz stayed on to reflect on his behaviour and seek help for his sexual deviant tendencies

    Make the best of this dump. Mid range Forecast is pretty terrible after Wednesday/thursday.

    Sun will be out in the south on Monday.
    Some drizzle in the North sun/mon

    You make it Sound like baz is a bad person? The chambermaid was wearing a skirt. And she's Service personell. Who are you to Condemn that?

    What's next ? Abolishing the fox hunt and sending kids to public school?

    The Baz hasn’t danced like that since Barry Manilow played Leeds in ‘89 and managed to “snog” two girls from Essex in the same evening…sadly, he is still having to deal with the co-pay on the valtrex…

    Wash your mouth out you filthy heathen. How dare you suggest such things. Baz has every right. A company he has a vested interest in is supplying the weapons that her fellow country men are using. If it wasn't for heros like our Baz, girls like her would be banished to siberian gułags sold in to prostitution serving Russian criminals.
    As for his wife what a selfish horse face cow. Baz has needs

    Baz looks like he's dancing to a different track. I hope his weak bladder holds up on him. He does have the odd dribble and wet patch when he exerts himself

    Thanks! Back in Canada now but we had a good day there! Nobody skiing off the groomers, so we had good snow on all the little short shots. Did one run down the glacier off the back too. Cool surroundings, but not the best skiing the day we were there.

    in the non skiing world the fasnacht in luzerne is an absolute party if someone were to add it on front or back side of a trip. Bring a costume and don't look like dumb people like us
