Vallee Blanche
A day on the Vallee Blanche, a classic 20km ski descent down high-altitude glaciers, and finally through forests all the way down to Chamonix from the summit of the Aiguille du Midi at 3,840m.

Crochues-Berard ski tour
After several days with no snowfall, a perfect bluebird day was all the motivation needed to get on the Berard Valley tour, where the north-facing aspect of the descent often prolongs good powder conditions.

The Aiguille Verte, Dru and Grandes Jorasses from the top of Floria drag-lift at Flegere - the start of the tour.
