First Days

So Sophie got delayed a few weeks coming out and Allan wasnt here yet. and to be perfectly frank LG looked just a tad intimidating! No bother, i went into snowlegend (http://www.snowlegend.com/) to meet Didi, and i ended up meeting a very nice french bloke called Gilles. He was on holiday, and invited me to ski with them for a few days. Gilles collects strangers, so before long we had a Posse! Gilles (fr), Seb (fr), Stephan(fr), Johaness (de) and Pierre (bel).

We did one day at LG in bad weather and zero vis, then decided to head to Le Monetier (Serre Chev) to check out the famous tree skiiing in tabucskogen. We hired a guide for the day (Pierre), from snowlegend.

On the way over the col d lauteret, we spotted a Italian damsel in distress, trying to don her snow chains. Of course we all obliged. great stuff.















Seb and Pierre wait for Johaness and Pierre, who broke down on the col! Nei!
