I just wanted to ask everyone to adhere to the Black Grouse protection areas. There is one under the Dou de Launches chair in La Tania and many people are cutting into the area. The Black Grouse are gorgeous birds and if you love wildlife and the mountains please respect these conservation areas which are not large and aren’t spoiling your off-piste. A genuine thanks to the guys I told off today for coming back onto the piste :)),
I don’t think you realised nor saw the signs however the ski instructor I saw there the other day should certainly know better! Here’s some more info:
