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
