So, it turned out a few of us had a few days off and Felix thought it would be a great idea to go skiing. So we did. And it was brilliant. If a little scary…

Big thanks to Felix, Anders, Ben and Seb from Powder Extreme and Big Seb – especially as I’ve nicked a few of his photos here…

Yes, Kent took anybody who was at a lose end in Verbier on a tour of the Four Valleys. And it was all rather nice – especially the cheese. And it looked a bit like this:

Well, an unexpected day off and after a quick trip down Col de Mouche, Jonno and I decided it was time to hop over the ropes and head down the backside of Mont Fort.

Now, a lot of you might be worrying about all this sun and warm weather, but high up the off-piste is rather good (although the wind has been at it and there are a lot of wet slides about). And the pistes are actually in pretty good condition, too. And there were some pretty good untracked bits to be found…

Anyway, it looked a bit like this:

The snow’s coming down in town and the forecast is for it to keep going all day. Which nearly makes up for the act we were due a load more on Friday but there’s high pressure moving north over the Med which has scuppered things. (Now, that’s a pretty geeky answer but we know you only deal in the cold hard facts).

Still, it’s pretty relentless snow this morning so cross something for us…

Meanwhile it’s been baltic in resort the last few days, but it’s also been blue skies and looking stunning. This stunning in fact:

Snow update…

Here are a couple of snaps in town this morning but we’ve also just been told they’ve got over a foot of fresh down by Lake Geneva (cheers Rob – and everyone else have a read of his splendid blog).

Well, while we were sitting in the office it would appear that Felix was letting the rest of the team have fun. Unscheduled fun actually.

Meanwhile it’s also been pretty in town…
