More Powder in Chamonix and a new article on line!

Its been snowing pretty continuously this week and yesterday after a few days off I joined the BC Intro group for some powder laps up at Flegere which was in amazing condition.

Lap after lap right off the lift.

A cloud cover kept the snow cold and sweet until white out conditions prevailed and most people bailed thinking the good times were over. We of course stuck it out hoping for one more good one and headed back up to be rewarded by blue skies once again and the mountain pretty much to our selves.

More snow due this weekend, the winter has returned!


A friend of mine, Mtn Guide, Neil Brodie (who some McNab BC riders might know from BC courses) has recently returned from a exploratory trip to search out and ski the powder delights of Iran. I have just posted his story and pics so check it out. 'The Iran story'


I have been considering Iran as a future destination for one of our "Voyager Expedition' trips and Neil B is very keen to get back there saying it was an amazing experience and has a great plan for a future trip.

Neil B's Iran trip will be on the program for next Feb so if you're interested in joining us on this journey into virtually unexplored territory then let us know and get your name down on the provisional list.

Conditions are looking good for next weeks BC Courses.

Still getting the fresh lines!

Neil.
