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!
Yes, since Toby blogged the videos of Verbier getting another dump TeleVerbier have been promising to open the lifts if over a thousand of us liked their Facebook post. Naturally about ten million people instantly liked, shared, Tweeted, and Social-Mediad the thing but despite promising to open if the weather was good / safe, the weather is rubbish for the weekend so no June skiing jankers for us.
By way of compensation we have had marching bands in town – well, if you’re on a Bank Holiday what else do you do?
Meanwhile there was a little reference to opening in the summer at Mont Fort if TeleNendaz were up for it. We’ll keep you posted…
We promised we’d have some biking madness for you this weekend and you will not be dissapointed. It’s still going but very cool and the bike display deserves it’s own post. So enjoy…
Yes you can. In a mighty Subaru if you happen to drive one. So Sophie and I had a little explore before tea yesterday, and we can’t help wonder that – if they ever finish the new lift from Verbier and Le Chable to Bruson, if we’ll be doing an awful lot more of exploring over here. It would certainly be very cool if they opened it in the summer.
Anyway, it looked like this it looked like this…
I know, it’s still August – well, until tomorrow. But I’ve just looked at the webcams and it’s been snowing up top. Which seems good with Autumn about to take over for a bit. Perhaps we’re in for a big winter though – could it be a sign…? (I know. Probably not. But it’s still cool).
The snow up at Mont Fort
Is that a dusting on the roof at Attelas? I think it is…
A few rumours have started to circulate that Verbier’s top venue for getting beer in your ski boots was closing.
But don’t panic – it’s just a bit of a refurb whilst the boys chase a leak that’s coming from the old floor of the bar. So despite the alarming number of skips outside the place and the loss of some heavily booze-soaked furniture, it’ll be back and ready for the new season.
Which is only about 10 weeks away if we open in early November like usual…
