Due to the overnight rain here in Les Gets and the lack of snow. We decided to try our luck in Avoriaz which at 1800metres is 700metres above Les Gets. <\/p>\n

Much, much better snow and obviously quite crowded, the off piste bits are still very icy but the pistes were in quite good condition. Here is our afternoon’s activities. <\/a>I covered 16.6 miles, so not so bad with my left toe strap snapping on the last run home \ud83d\ude41 The afternoon pass cost 24.50 Euro so quite dear.<\/p>\n

I ventured to just above where I was walking the GR5 in September. Looking directly down at Col de Chesery and Lac Vert where I spent my second night in the Refuge<\/b> de Ch\u00e9sery<\/b> (it was just about covered in snow today.).<\/p>\n
