So, a quick recap of the ski season while I ride the train from Zermatt to Geneva.

On my fourth day of skiing at Snowbird in early February, I had freak accident which hobbled me. Instead of a glorious ski tour thru UT,  CO and CA, I ended up only skiing about half of the days in the month and most of those were half days as I tried to rehab myself.

Arriving back in Boston in early March, I had 2 ½ weeks to get myself back in working order before heading to Europe.

Arriving in Courmayeur Italy on March 22, I skied one day each in Courmayeur, Pila and Le Thuile. The Aosta Valley of Italy - just on the other side of the Mount Blanc tunnel - was a revelation. If you don't mind driving a bit, it has some wonderful ski areas and is a spectacular area. I plan to come back. It was amazing to find Spring in the valleys and full winter 1,000m higher. In the city of Aosta, there is a gondola right in the city. You get on in a green valley and 20 minutes later you are in the ski area with feet of snow.

From Courmayeur, we went back through the tunnel to Chamonix where again Spring was in the town but a gondola ride up found winter in Grand Montets, Le Tour and Brevent/Flegere ski areas. Grand Montets is the the real deal - holy smokes talk about thousands of meters of sustained pitch. Unfortunately, like most of the skiing throughout the trip, conditions required staying on-piste due to lack of recent snows.

After five days in Chamonix, my friends and I started the 6 day/5 night Le Haute tour. Essentially, a ski tour/mountaineering trip from Chamonix to Zermatt where you travel across glaciers, up and down couloirs and stay at high elevation huts. The scenery is crazy beautiful and breathtaking. This was also the most physically difficult thing I've done in my life. I had somehow deluded myself into thinking that my lack of training in the preceding 7 weeks wouldn't matter. Hats off to an amazing Swiss guide for getting me to Zermatt. It was so bad that on the sixth day I got sunburn on my upper gums because my head was down and I was gritting my teeth the whole day! We had started this final 11 hour day at 430am ski traversing in a no-fall zone to a glacier where we skinned up a mountain pass for two hours. If anyone has any questions or is considering this tour, send me a message. I'm happy to answer any questions. It was a fantastic experience but requires a ton of fitness and alpine skills, the least of which is downhill skiing.

After a day in Zermatt resting, I've spent the last 4 ½ days skiing in Zermatt and Cervinia/Valtournenche (Italian side linked together with Zermatt). Again due to conditions, the skiing was all on piste but the Matterhorn and glaciers covering the Monte Rosa massif are an amazing backdrop that has you stopping to take pictures all the time.

 

 

Sounds amazing. Share some pics.

Quite the vorticity on that weak wave.

Congrats 6Z Euro has 2 snow events
