First skate ski of the winter. The 400 meter climb to the crête du poulet and Luisard is always good to get the red blood cells working.

I had thought about skiing in the morning but was worried with the long period of cold weather that the pistes would be too hard so instead arrived at 2pm.

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've been really tired after the 42k marathon so didn't feel like skiing today. I saw Barioz had all the trails open and it is just half an hour's drive. Ideal during the petrol crisis.

Grand Rocher ski race at Barioz. It is a relay. First part is a 1150 meter skimo race. 120 racers set off in a mass start and there are 5 transitions to do en-route.

Last Barioz before the annual closure on the 31st March. Overall a good season. I skied the Creve Coeur, Refuge, Levant and Luisard for a good tour of the runs. Excellent skiing.

I'd not been back to Barioz for a while but had a half day off to enjoy the last of the summer in winter weather.

I knew there was a lack of snow. All the lower runs are shut. The skating was pretty good. A lot of people on foot, some stomping on the ski runs, doh! Not too many other skiers.

I've not skied up at Barioz this year although the conditions have been better than last season at this altitude with good snow cover on the refuge piste.

The Ramiettes was open down to the 4 chemins. It was fairly hard work coming back up especially linked with the Cret du Poulet climb on soft snow.
