All routes included in this work are skied at the reader's own risk. If in doubt ski with a guide. Before setting out you should be familiar with avalanche and other off-piste risks. Inform yourself of the weather and snow conditions with the resort ski patrol or guides and leave a route plan and estimated time of return. Avalanches don't distinguish between expert and inexperienced skiers, each member of the group should carry a shovel, probe and avalanche transceiver and know how to use them,

Some of the route suggestions have come from friends, guides or locals and are included for completeness. The difficulty of an individual route can vary enormously with the current snow conditions so no specific guidance is included.
