Demo Day

January 15, 2008 - Grand Envers

Decent conditions at Les Grands with nobody there. All trashed from yesterday, but a little bit of fresh last night plus a lot of wind made it interesting in places. Unfortunately I demoed some skis which made every turn a fight (I won't be buying them), but it still made for a nice lazy morning with friends.

Back into town to take a long lunch break then up the Midi with JC to do the Grand Envers. Not the best conditions there either - what wasn't tracked out ranged from slightly wind affected to massively so. From waist deep wind loaded blower to boilerplate in one turn. But I love the ambience up there and we did manage to find a few fresh turns. JC showed me a nice little couloir down low though - a few hundred meters of pure bliss, making the first two tracks down, and the highlight of the day.
