2 Days To Go

It is not the prettiest of villages, the telecabine station over powers the area 8)

We were ski-ing in Orelle once, and it was incredibly foggy, so that you could hardly see your skis, let alone where you were going. I nearly fell over because I couldn't see if I was ski-ing uphill or downhill :shock:
We'd come over from Val Thorens, where it was nice and sunny, so it was a bit of a shock. I guess the weather in the mountains is very variable and unpredictable. I also seem to remember a bit at the top where it was very windy and flat and you had to pole your way along.

But I thought the Orelle valley was really beautiful - nice and quiet, and Val Thorens was great, plenty of ski-ing of all sorts to suit everyone.

Hi Everyone

Thanks for the tips and hints

I think a trip to VT and La Norma will be on the cards and I might be able to grab some off piste in the afternoon once I've finished teaching a five year old to ski. :D

Judging by the weather yesterday the hardest part could be getting to Dover to catch the ferry lol

Here's looking forward to a busy half term week's skiing
