Another fine day in the office!

After a night of continuous snowfall the day dawned bright and clear drawing us out and upwards for a big descent of the Valley Blanche.

Whilst much of the lower Chamonix valley was shrouded in mist for most of the day the peaks at altitude were clear and the snow conditions light, deep and untracked.

With an early start we made an amazing descent down the massive slopes below the Gross Rognon before heading on down to practice some Crevasse rescue skills lower down on the Mer du Glace.

Jojo gets the line and shot of the day!

Whilst Jo's dad Dave doesn't do to bad himself!

The powder goes on and on as Gavin digs deep.

Simon kicks up a storm, check out how light that powder is!

Another great day in the bag and a heli drop booked for the morning.

Work, work, work... That's all i seem to do these days!!!

Neil.
