The slopes to myself

The sun is not too high, not too low. The snow is powdery with just that bit of crispness. And there's no-one there, just me, the slopes, the swishing of the skis and my thoughts.

Of course this isn't me - but I wish I had been this lone skier making my way off piste down to Orelle from the top of La Masse, Les Menuires. Next time, eh?

Lenticular clouds

Hey ho - another glorious day on the slopes. These lenticular clouds may augur an end to the dawn-to-dusk sunshine, though.

Arc en ciel

Sometimes the ski slopes are shades of blue and white as far as you can see. But only sometimes. Today there were all the colours of the rainbow to delight weary but happy skiers returning to wherever they came from in the Trois Vallees, France.
