Around Bruson


The forest trolls were wondering what we were doing there too! But once out of the trees and pine needle snow it was glorious!

Snowshoeing Fionnay


I just love this area, it has everything. You can pic-nic by the summer mayens (wooden shacks) or jump over the river! Animal tracks are all over too, simply marvelous!

Snowshoeing at the Lac de Tannay


Wonderful day with the snow trolls! Just wish the snow angels would give us a bit of fresh snow to play in! The views here and the tranquility are heavenly!

Winter in Verbier


The river in Fionnay (La Dranse) is a sight right now! The snow has mushroomed up on top of the rocks to create some fabulous artistic views! Call me soon to go see them yourself!

Snowshoeing in Verbier


This is the perfect time for snowshoeing in Verbier - the high pressure is sending us sunny skies till the beginning of March apparently! So put a pair on and come with me to see the wild animal tracks and imbibe in the beauty of the fresh alpine views!

Verbier & the 4 Valleys


How did I get so lucky to get invited to this magnificient outing?! As the only girl I better not do anything stupid so I can come again! Unfortunately it will not become a place to snowshoe to. But we can hike up here in the summer!

What a view!


The cime de l'Est - part of the Dents du Midi seen from the Col des Martinets.
Thank you Antony for schlepping up over 1500 meters with me! And waiting for me to get down the steepest couloir I have ever skied in my life!
This is not a place for snowshoeing to the top, but the forest is worth it!

Snowshoeing above Martigny


I think the snow angels live here! Everytime I have been in this area it has snowed! The forest is beautiful and full of wild animals. There are lots of wild hare tracks & I have seen a chamois staring at me between the trees - which I really did not expect considering the noise one makes on snowshoes!

Snowshoeing in La Fouly


This was a discovery day, and WOW! It was beautiful and just perfect views! Cannot wait to take you there!

Cretta di Vela


On the way to the Grand Saint Bernard lie a bunch of lazy looking mountains. They are really beautiful to climb up. But I admit we did it on touring skis and not with snowshoes. The first part would be fun to do on snowshoes, but the summit would be a bit long to get to.

IT IS SNOWING LIKE CRAZZZZZZY!


Hey!
This is the time to get snowshoes out and explore the forests!

Snowshoeing!


Here is what the tennis raquets you tie to your feet look like!

Snowshoeing in Champsec


If you have never been to Champsec it is time to discover it now on snowshoes! They don't see the sun for 3 or 4 months so the snow is fluffy and the crystals are worth looking at. They felt like corn flakes under our 'raquettes'!

Verbier


Coco club opened and I took the partiers out on snowshoes!

Bois de ChĂȘnes


The forests of fall are so inviting! Although I am happy to go home and have a hot cup of tea infront of the fire too!
