    First powder of the season!!

    Went skiing last weekend during the Mondial du Ski.. Got press-cards for the first time, which meant a free liftpass, free drinks, free meals, get up an hour early with the gondola, which was pretty good, considering the conditions....

    Last fridaynight at Les 2 Alpes, France

    Nope, we stayed at the far end of the village (next to the yeti bar, near l'avalanche). These pictures come from skipass.com, a sort of french maggots, which flooded the place

    We only filmed, but the guy with the cam is slacking and hasn't sent me the raw stuff yet...

    That brings it all back for me. I was staying in the apartment directly behind the cameraman this summer. The peak on the left is La Muzelle and the one on the right is the Aiguille du Venosc. The Aiguille just seems to rise straight out ofd the end of the main street at Deux Alpes from certain points in the resort and it's a perfect shark's tooth when viewed head-on.

    Great stoke AH. Glad you had a great time.
