On the latest visit to Chamonix, Pete’s technology got swabbed for explosives at Newcastle airport. All this is for his new weather station in Chamonix, France. Unfortunately the lack of French DIY shops that are open on Sundays prevented the project being completed – perhaps next time?
Well, Pete & Tish were away so Terry went to play in Borrowdale and bumped into Keith and Fiona, following them up ‘Ardus’ (which is Latin for ‘gets harder every time you do it!!) Almost a summer day on Shepherds, except for the caf being closed. Opens 1 April.
Another weekend in Chamonix ski touring in warm spring conditions (10°C) and with deep powder everywhere.
A visit to Kong Vinter gave us a very interesting day as the temperatures rose and the ice began to crumble.
What trip to Rjukan would be complete without a trip to Krokan: 5 minute walk in downhill!
After a day honing our skiing technique at the local ski area we headed high as the temperatures were rising in the valley.
