Maybe he had dual nationality from a parent but he definitely considered himself Swiss, was born here and lived most of his life here

He was Swiss from Basel, not British. I have not skied with him but he had a very impressive record of Alpine achievements. It seems the son is fine (physically).

All I know is that they were both caught, the father died and the son survived. My wife is friends with the deceased man’s ex-wife / mother of the boy so she may find out more in time

As I said I don’t know the details of how they ended up there but I know he was an experienced Alpinist

I think it’s related to Zermatt now being on the IKON Pass, an American kid was killed and the prospect of eventual legal cases against the resort.

I don’t know the details but one of the victims...

The top part of the direct entry to the dogleg always get the nerves jangling!

The boss!

A few local mags going up tomorrow morning to pay homage to the Mayor of Stomptown!

It was decent enough on Tuesday. 10-15cm of fresh at the top on a crunchy base. And there was more in the forecast when we left

Looks like Simplon got plastered again. Another chance for Rothwald tomorrow…

Georgia had much better snow conditions and was an easier venue. Until you’ve skied the Bec you cannot imagine how steep and intimidating it is. That was the move of the season by a distance

It was the outstanding run by some margin IMO. Finn Billous’s run was exceptional but he does not have the fall line strength of Goguen, and the only other competitor that does, Max Hitzig, put in a...

No fresh but good times @ Eagle Pass

All time conditions on the North Face of Mont Fort 491814

Goguens run was underscored. What he did on that lower double showed imagination, incredible balls, pinpoint control and the strength of an ox to pull it off. Not sure anyone else in the field could...

Sorry it seems we all watched a different run to you

Very nice! I’d just sent my mates his story. I guess thats you?

We’ve been watching the Annibal for a while! Hoping for a window around Easter

Have you ever skied the Bec?

If you make it over to Verbier I’ll be around during that period doing high altitude stuff as training for the PdG. If you’re a strong skier it’s the perfect time for skiing the Bec des Rosses

I don’t understand why they ran it in warm grabby conditions on Friday when there is 30cm of cold pow forecast over the weekend and Monday’s forecast is perfect

Hard to beat the high Alpine glaciers around Zermatt for that brief! Or head to Arolla and stay up at the spectacular Cabane des Vignettes if there’s any space left
...

That’s very late season so only a few of the highest resorts will be left open and without all the lifts. Zermatt is open until 1st. Val d’Isere/Tignes and Val Thorens (but not 3V links) also options.

If you haven’t done it before err on the side of caution. I haven’t been recently but believe the ladders are no longer so access would be under the cables and into the 40+ degree couloir. And given...

Warming up but still fab conditions on the steep the North faces

All the classic lines look good. Could see some new lines this year with so many rocks covered
490222

Conditions looked pretty bony on the face check yesterday. Hopefully they get a top up today. At 2120m Wildseeloder is quite low which is a particular problem this season. Bec des Rosses is over...

Simplon getting pounded! Any beta on Rosswald / Rothwald?

That’s about as good as it gets. Martin was with Goguen, Ho and a few other local young chargers on Mont Gelé this morning. I guess they’ll be going for a look later…

What a lovely message to wake up to! Love you too Subtle 💝

Yep they really should have targeted the lifties, waiters and shop assistants 💰💰💰

Not sure that’s true. Judging by the FWT qualifiers this year Verbier has the best Freeride club in the world

Not sure they’re that bummed. The super rich don’t ski much and the value of their properties will just go up. It’s the skiers who will suffer from the extra traffic
