DescriptionClose to St Etienne, a domain for locals to cross-country ski (alternative and skating) or snowshoeing on marked and secured trails. There are loipe of different lengths and difficulties.

DescriptionThe Plateau d'Hauteville, located in the southern part of the Jura Mountains, between 850 and 1234 meters.

First time at the Col de Porte this season. Just cruised around the pistes a couple of times. The climbs were quite hard, lack of fitness and steep hills.

Situated between 1000 and 1300 meters and with more than 150 km of marked routes for all nordic activies, the Retord Plateau is a paradise for Nordic skiing.

A short afterwork climb to the Oratory of the Charmant Som.

Late afternoon skate at Barioz. I had no idea what was open but saw a skier up on the plateau on the webcam so figured at least the climb was open.

I was a bit tired after covering 90k on skis at l'Alpe d'Huez yesterday. Ok a third of that was probably on lifts but still.

Annual trip to the Grand Rocher mountain on cross country skis. The summit is reached via a series of 3 plateaux then a ridge line.

Final compet. of the season. Basically a tour of the black piste (Justine Braisaz) at les Saisies.

I've been testing myself on this climb and thought I might be able to go under 29 minutes but it was not to be, 4 seconds of my fastest time : 29m14s.
