Mini tour + more filler days

Fri 27th: Col above Index - Dusting of powder + nice corn

Met Greg for a quick late tour. Lateness + cloud band meant we didn't want to drop over the back so we skied the couloir far looker's left above Index. Nice easy tour made more difficult by my hangover. The couloir had a dusting of fresh but as I went second there wasn't much left. Nice corn below to open up the giant GS turns. Fun afternoon!

Mon 30th: Flegere - Bottomless heavy fresh

Title gives it too much credit. GM was completely closed so a u-turn to Flegere with Oskar. We were expecting the goods as it had been snowing for two days. What we found was bottomless heavy snow and only the two bottom lifts open. It was kind of fun at the start when untracked but quickly became pretty bad. Had to sit right back and blitz it. People were digging tips left right and centre. After 5-10 laps I called it and went down.

Tues 31st: GM - Slightly heavy to reallllly heavy

More snow had fallen and some higher lifts were open. Skied quite a few laps off Tabe. Good fun and even some visibility. The lower magic forest was vile so we only did one lap of the Retour Pendant. Back to Tabe for more heavy but fun snow lapping every direction off it, thighs burning the whole time...
