Verbier Powder


A first for me in November - put the skins on my skis right outside my front door! Broke trail up to Verbier in fresh powder, and cruised down to Le Châble with skiers/tellemarkers supreme Hans Solmssen, Stephen Hadik & Bob Mazzeri. Keep your eyes open for our U-Tube flik comming soon!

Skinning in Verbier


This is a trip we won't forget! To begin with I took the wrong skins & had to use the emergency medical tape to hold them on for the 900m hike. Then the snow machine tried to run us over during our pic-nic. We made a quick get away without spilling the tea, only to discover at the summit that A-V had dropped her camera! On the ski down we stopped at our disrupted pic-nic spot and found it!!

Thank you Anne-Valérie for pushing my head up above & out of the clouds & damp weather to the sun shine at 2700m! Yipppeeee!
