Skiing: La Rosiere Wind Direction: Wind Stength: 30/40 mph Surf / Sea State: Air Temperature: Sea Temperature: Weather: cloudy and very cold Max Speed: Distance Covered:
With strong winds today we had a relaxing morning in the apartment :)
reading good books and I bought the only English newspaper in town!!! good
news that Simon Cowell was beaten to the Christmas number 1 by Rage Against
the Machine :) a bit sad for poor Joe but can’t win’um all !!!!
After lunch Rob, Dan and I decide to brave the conditions leaving a bit
under the weather Mag at the apartment :( The lady at the pass office
warned us of the strong winds and that several lifts were shut but as the
lower Petit Bois lift was open today we decided to give it a go!!! We made
the mistake of going up the Eucherts Express first and the conditions at
the top were bad with the strong winds blowing the snow making visibility
bad :( We made it back down to Eucherts then skied on the Marmotte Piste or
the Mar Cassin off piste black !!! The off piste was fun with the wind
blowing the snow – one minute you were on hard ice then the next in three
feet of power !!! I did lose my ski for 15 minutes and was lucky to find
it!!! Not helped by the 10 French skiers skiing by us when we were on our
hands and knees looking for it!!! My ski bindings are very lose and one
came off while just skiing the piste which doesn’t make for a relaxing
day!!! I will get them tightened tomorrow. Let’s hope the weather
improves tomorrow!!!
