    Little Shredders

    Wow amazing how quickly the kids are improving. With the little one elsewhere, the older one convinced me to take him up Mont Gele on Saturday. The main chutes were very skied out so went looking for something a bit chalkier

    Bouquetin couloir was perfect. A bit steep at the top but nice and grippy. The little guy was rock solid!


    Admiring the view


    Searching out a few powder turns


    Nice control


    He loved it so we went for a second round under Attelas. This is the entrance to the very atmospheric 3 fingers couloir which is easier this season due to the amount of snow


    The entrance is still quite intimidating. Short skis handy at the choke point!


    Haha first Attelas couloir navigated successfully


    Went back up Mont Gele and over to the other side. The approach to Weather station or S couloir


    some great snow in here


    Finished things off with Attelas Number 1


    What a day! Not sure mum’s too happy 😉

    Agreed, outstanding shot. That is big terrain for a 7 y.o. Very, very impressive!

    We have a few more years before we get there, but my oldest just learned how to carve.... Can't wait to get into terrain with her.

    formerly an ambassador for a few others, but the ski industry is... interesting.
    Fukt: a very small amount of snow.
