 Poster: A snowHead
|
We're off ot PdS (again) in January and February, and looking for an off piste guide, mainly lift-served, although we're not averse to some bootpacking or short skins. Can anyone advise a good local guide, or guidebook for off piste and/or touring?
Thanks.

Obviously A snowHead isn't a real person

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

A book called Chablais by Jean-Baptiste Mang is a good one with various routes and can be bought in English. We also run touring sessions and can show you lift accessible routes. If you send me an email to enquiry@pds-academy.co.uk with more details I can send you some options.

@shep, @jjc, thanks for your advice. Mang's book looks good, although I wasn't planning a full-on tour this time. We're based in Chappelle, but we could easily get to Avoriaz within 30 mins of the lifts opening. I'll speak to my skiing buddy and let you know if we decide to take it further.
