This Eagle Ski Club week proved so popular in the past that we decided to run 2 courses a year and it still books up fast. Grimentz and Zinal - the Val d'Anniviers - is increasingly well-known in the ski world yet still manages to provide a unique mix of great lift access with great off-piste and day touring whilst not being too busy. The queues in the Coop are bigger than any you'll find on the mountain, and as usual last week surpassed all expectations!

On Wednesday we had to deliver a pot of paint to Vercorin...via Rechy and Mont Noble. It's a long story!
