Snowboarding: Les Menuires Wind Direction: Wind Stength: Surf / Sea State: Air Temperature: -4 Sea Temperature: Weather: Snowing Max Speed: Distance Covered:
Another brilliant day.
After sticking with the skiers for thr first few runs they got tired and
sacked it so I headed over to Le Masse side of the valley. Hardly anybody
was on the lifts so it was a case of pick your route down then straight
back up. There was quite high winds at the top of the lifts but you were
sheltered as you dropped down a couple of hundred metres.
The wind had drifted the snow into a 4 foot frozen powder wave near the top
of the Enverses run and I was able to "surf" it for 200m before dropping
into La Roche Noire (an unpisted black run).
It was a brilliant end to a holiday and I boarded till the last lift as it
was my last day. I envy anyone heading out to the French Alps as it was
snowing right up untill we left.
