Hostile

A wild, cold, windy day. My feet were numb. I forgot my gimp mask so my face froze. There were mega accumulations of wind blown snow. We didn’t see a soul all day. Thanks to Mika Merikanto for the day and the photos.Helbronner-3 Helbronner

How Good

Col d’Entreves had lots of snow earlier this week and we enjoyed a fast freeride run down the headwall with the Chamonix crew of Seth Morrison, Nate Wallace, Luca Pandolfi, Davide de Masi and Tof.
