New pic of the re-shaping of Jockeys / Murettes pistes down to Le Praz

noreply@blogger.com (Nick - Nick Ski) — Tue, 13 Oct 2009 11:48:00 +0000

Lots of piste re modelling work going on near the Ski Jump in Le Praz on the bottom of the Jockeys and Murettes piste. This is where the runs start to get more sun and the first part of the runs to lose snow, they’re being re-shaped and it looks like snow cannons are planned (see the orange markers).

More September Skiing....

> Went to Tignes yesterday, sun was out and it was a glorious day!
> Ulf, Pete, Moira, John (new Ski Power) and myself enjoyed a very
> strange experience of skiing in september. Was icy first thing but
> once the sun had worked its magic it was almost perfect spring
> conditions. Four runs open and it was a mish mash of lifts. First
> time on a funicular for me, also there was a t-bar which took me
> back to Austrian 80s skiing and there was a funny rope with a metal
> arm which was meant to go behind the legs which provided a bit of
> comedy. Also a chair lift and gondola open. Lots of kids training
> and everyone gone by 1pm! A little sunburnt today top temp about
> 22oC. Also legs aching better get fit for the season! Cath x
