Poster: A snowHead
|
I post some photos in the snow report forum, but in this case I think that are enough "amazing" to post it here as much people don't visit the other place.
Past saturday we went to Porté-Puymorens to see if the couloirs were in a good shape. And what an epic day!! The higher skilift is closed this season (this season and the nexts..undefined reopening) so the acces to the couloirs needs some hike (I prefer it, lots less people taste them, and is only between 5 and 20min). As the resort was closed all the week waiting for the official opening, the saturday was the DAY, we spended all the day there, and skied 6 couloirs, opening all of them.
Really full of snow, the trees were snowghosts, and the snow cover all the faces, all the steeps, rocks... unbelievable for a 20-dec. Lots of photos to save in the bests skiing days desk...
First lift, the trees under snow
Yes...snowghosts in the Pyrenees
First one
Second couloir

Sixth....waiting the tired crew, (I was skinning, lot less tiring than the snowboarders walking)..I love this pic...

I can't remember if it was one of yours AlTom, but we certainly need to make that photo of the chairlift under snow a bit more visible...
