Fresh lines for Al and Ewan down the periades, Valley Blanche (BC Freeride)Its finally cleared over here and we've had a good few days of riding great snow under blue skies.
The Tech clinic team are coming on strong, lots of progress, a completely different level from when we started only 4 days ago. Today we headed over to Courmayeur where the pistes were in perfect condition for working on opposing pressure as a preparation for steering and all the team started to click.
In the afternoon we rode accessed one of the steep off piste descents off the Arp lift and rode some pretty nice snow back down to the resort. The run right down to the car park at the Val Veni lift is in great condition and is great fun at the end of the day and we also watched a Barbu fly over (a bearded Vulture with 3meter wingspan!) on our final descent.
Grands Montets tomorrow where they're planning on opening the top tickets lift for the first time this season. Could be good but were also due a bit of snow 20cm to 1000m so either way were on a winner, great, things are setting up nicely for next weeks 3 day Off Piste clinic!
I have a friend (Guide) who is running a trip to Kamchatka heli boarding 26th March to 4th April and he has 2 places available. I'm personally not running this trip until next season so if anyone needs a big heli fix this year and can't wait until 2011 let us know and we'll pass on your details.
My Kashmir BC adventure is looming and I'm really looking forward to it, only a week to go! We have already started a list of riders for this trip next year so if you'd like to join a 2011 Gulmarg trip get in touch with Ruth in the office.
Enough news for now, I'll finish with another testimonial from last week.
Our mission is to inspire and we're inspired!
Neil.
Hi Neil & Ruth
Thanks for organizing another excellent course last week.
It was great to sort out some bad habits and I feel enthusiastic again
about progressing with my riding.
Regards
Simon
