After yesterday’s aborted mission on the Glacier Rond we figured if we wanted to ski a steep line a better option would be to head over to the Italian side which is the South Face of the massif, and basking in sunshine we were anticipating being presented with some lovely corn snow.

It started with a loaded question over dinner – ‘Are your edges sharp?” – I replied in the affirmative and said they had been serviced that day. I didn’t think much of it as our plan for the next day was to climb over the Col du Chardonnet and spend a night in a refuge

After a well-earned day off it was time to ski. While there had been a terrible foehn blowing in Chamonix, on the other side of the range in Italy it had been snowing, so we decided to head through the tunnel to check it out. The scenes at either end of the tunnel could not
We had originally wanted to ski this couloir the day before, but there was a chilly northerly breeze that Jerome was afraid would prevent the couloir softening up, which would make it an absolute death trap.
