Description

We got up early to ski for 3 hours around the 7 Laux pistes. Tot took 2nd overall on the Vallons run on Strava. We also took a new piste I'd never skied before, the very steep Lagopede, the entrance was mogulled and icy so we shunted it with a bit of off-piste. The main slope was powder and very pleasant to ski. Off piste was a mix of blown powder, hard snow with good grip or ice. Only the Oursiere lift had some queuing otherwise all pretty good, for half term. Lots of skiers on the slopes though.

Conditions

Generally good snow. Quite a few stones in places that had rolled onto the runs but nothing nasty. Very windy: foehn
