Off-Piste Course 02-07/03: Skiing in Le Tour

The Off-Piste Workshop from 02-07/03/08 was comprised of four participants, Christie, Peter, Gary and Graham, and was led by guide Sébastien. Depsite the bad weather that was predicted, they were lucky enough to get some great days of skiing as well as practical experience of glacier travel and crevasse rescue.

On the first day they headed up to Le Tour, took in the glorious scenery and found their ski legs. Enjoy the beautiful photos, courtesy of Peter and Christie.
