"SKI plus": what is it?
It is quite simply being able to ski in
all types of snow and discovering the pleasures of this freedom:
long descents, extremely long descents, fields of powder snow, as
far from the busy slopes as often as possible.
Getting to the top of the slopes is done by the lift systems as
often as possible, and sometimes with ski touring skis and skins
with 30 minutes to 2 hours of ascent.

+ far : away from
the madding crowds on the slopes |
 |
+ high : short walks
to get to the best spots |
 |
+ strong : using
ski touring skins to go even further |
 |
+ horizon : for
more freedom... |
Ski touring means travelling into the heart of
the mountains, forgetting your worries and your home comforts, and
living the mountains 100% for the space of a week.
Of course, this requires a good level of skiing ability and experience
of off-piste skiing (i.e. Efficacy in all types of snow) and ski
touring (i.e. capable of fixing climbing skins and doing neat ski
conversions during the ascent) and having a good physical condition.
The possibilities are immense!
Personally I would recommend:
 |
The lesser known "Petite
haute-route" : from Saas-Fee toChamonix. |
 |
The interesting Bernina
massif with the Piz Palü (St Moritz / Pontresina) |
 |
L'Oberland
Bernois, with its immense glaciers and its more technical
summits. |
 |
There is also la Haute-Maurienne, la Vanoise,
les Cerces (easier), the Beaufortin (mountain wilderness)
, les Ecrins (technical and physical) : contact me for full
