Log in to snowHeads to make it MUCH better! Registration's totally free, of course, and makes snowHeads easier to use and to understand, gives better searching, filtering etc. as well as access to 'members only' forums, discounts and deals that U don't even know exist as a 'guest' user. (btw. 50,000+ snowHeads already know all this, making snowHeads the biggest, most active community of snow-heads in the UK, so you'll be in good company)..... When you register, you get our free weekly(-ish) snow report by email. It's rather good and not made up by tourist offices (or people that love the tourist office and want to marry it either)... We don't share your email address with anyone and we never send out any of those cheesy 'message from our partners' emails either. Anyway, snowHeads really is MUCH better when you're logged in - not least because you get to post your own messages complaining about things that annoy you like perhaps this banner which, incidentally, disappears when you log in :-)

I skied from around 12 to 25'ish then boarded till 45ish then went back on skis, as it's so much better for touring.

Today I was out with a couple of mates who were boarding and they too were having fun, bearing in mind we all come from a wind/kite/surfing background.

Though they do tend to seize up when the viz goes.

Started the day in Col de Mouches. Entry couloir (right of photo) looked super loaded so traversed out into the big bowl


Beautiful deep snow all the way down


Back up and over to Creblet. Traversed right over the ridge. Big slab had gone from above


Hooked up with a local guy and traversed into the mellow bowl


Snow always good here


My new Swiss buddy




The bottom half is classic meadow hopping


Looks like someone's opened up Col des Mines...


Massive cornice on the exit to the traverse


Lovely snow


Back up to Mouche and someone's put tracks in the entry couloir. Bad idea.... Fortunately they were dug out but super lucky as it was a massive slide!


Back up for a quick Vallon d'arbi as clouds coming in


And out via the forest route to La Tzoumaz


Great day in the mountains but that Mouche slide was pretty sobering!

I love watching good snowboarders ripping, they look like as graceful and agile as surfers Cool

Great skills gentlemen although that Mouche pic did make me feel a bit sick. Keep them coming and stay safe snowHead

Nothing better for powder. Powder skis are just two snowboards, these days. Same tech, and by the looks of some powder skis, nearing the width! Looks like a great day!

Great shots Bob. Nice to see you're not prejudiced. Your second shot indeed is what it's all about.

Snowboarding looks awesome when its done properly like this, so often see them scraping about or paddling on the flats and that looks no fun at all Laughing

Some of those images are in fact looking a little dark on my screen -- perhaps dial a bit more positive exposure compensation in? +2/3 or +1 usually works. If you look at the histograms you'll see what I mean. You can tweak them in Photoshop, but it's better to get it right in camera.
