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 :-)

Change of range today to the Belledonne and the North face of the 2700 m Belle Etoile in the 7 Laux backcountry. I'd skied this on the 13th June 2012, it is racing cert for snow and often powder

Climb up is steep at the summit
Look across the ridge to the Pic de Cabottes, I'd traversed this a few years ago which is tricky in itself then skied the steep 'S' couloir on the other side
The twin summits of the Rocher Blanc and Badon, some of the highest peaks of the Belledonne range at over 10,000'
Meetings, the guy with the carbon boots was "only" 70th in the Pierra Menta last year
Mike just off the summit
Hesitant first turns on the steeper pitch
Chartreuse and les 7 Laux in the background

Impressive photos - thanks!
Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

I'd love to spend a bit of time exploring the Belledonne - looks like there is a huge amount of stuff to do there
Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.
