| Mid-January 2004. We had 2m of snow in 48 hours. | The top of the Brevent seen here had drifts 4-5m deep. |
|
We were allowed up to look, but not to ski, which would
have been stupidly dangerous.
|
One American tourist tried, and died.
|
| Just about all of us love Le Tour. Great fun skiing, and some amazing off-piste | The Swiss side of Tour. You can see a pretty big slab avalanche on the top left |
| Look at all the lovely fresh snow! The two tracks are mine and Rhian's. The back of Tour is always a great place to find fresh powder |

End-of-season lunch break. We are actually still surrounded
by snow here! Rhian Tucker and Paul Drew
