Even with the miserable weather we have been experiencing over the past month they are continuing with the Bruson lift installation. Certainly no arguing whether it is going to happen now!

So there I was lying in bed on a Sunday morning and the wife says “Lets go ski touring” and I am like “yer, whatever , it’s the 26th May, the season’s over”. But as you know once your married you are not an individual any more, your a ‘team’. So in other words, do what your told..!

Anyway, it turned out to be a fun little trip up to Ruinette from Carrefour. And the snow was rather good..!

 

It’s been a little while since Verbier felt springlike and just about as long since we had a blue sky powder day. But the two turned up together yesterday and its definitely something we could get used to…

It’s half term but you know what? It’s not really that busy. Ok. It’s not quiet either but apart from a little weekend chaos yesterday we haven’t even been queuing that much.

Which all means we can nip up Tortin without contending with monster lift lines. Epic, as you might say.

Yes, epicness is a word. I myself invented it, and I invented it somewhere that looks a lot like this.

That’s because today was an amazing day in Verbier and whilst we weren’t in knee deep powder it was simply stunning and the skiing was great. Because you don’t need powder to enjoy great ski days. You just need views like these…
