Off-piste in Zinal and Grimentz for most of last week. This is a great area and still has some untracked snow - incredible as it hasn't snowed for a month. To be fair there is a fair amount of crust as well....
A big thankyou to Eric and Penny at the superb SkiZinal Chalet Edelweis - fantastic food and a very good sleep - and all at the foot of the best off-piste descent in Zinal!
Credit due also to the ski area workers who have managed to keep the pistes in excellent condition.
Sadly, I've discovered that my new camera isn't waterproof, so no pictures...
