Another weekend in Chamonix ski touring in warm spring conditions (10°C) and with deep powder everywhere.
How much is possible in just one weekend? Well, partly thanks to cheap flights a weekend in the Alps is possible. But what about redecorating a flat and going on a long ski tour all day Saturday too?
Our first ever proper ski tour!
Trying out our new ski touring equipment, we made a trip to Contamine.
We spent Xmas day taking a walk up the Gorges de la Dionsaz.
Anna, Ian, Sarah and Pete spent Christmas on the slopes, staying at Meribel-Mottaret...
Dave & Kath headed off to Val Thorens to see if the rumours were true - yes, there was snow, it snowed a little and we had a fab time.

On the last day of our holiday we teamed up with our mates again and headed out to sample some of the adventures they had planned for the long weekend. Ticking off some of the French via ferrata near Chamonix.
