You are longing to discover a specific route, or to follow the best snow conditions, or to have an initiation day ... everything (or nearly) is possible according the snow conditions and your level ! |
Level requested for an initiation:
-To be in good shape,
-to be able to go down a black ski-run, allows to begin ski touring in good conditions.
The place:
The valleys of Névache, Thabor, Guil (Queyras), Valouise, or Ubaye in the Hautes-Alpes are very well-known for hiking. There are so many possibilities that it is very rare we could not find good snow conditions on slopes adapted to your level somewhere !
The region enjoys ideal weather and snow conditions due to many climatic influences : it can be snowing at the Lautaret pass and sunny in the Queyras and conversly !
The larch forests are also a fantastic refuge for the ski when the avalanche risk is high.
When: from mid-december to end of may.
My price : 280 € per day.
This price included :
-my services as an High Mountain Guide,
-the transportation with my car in the region between the gite and the mountains,
-the organization, the bookings for the stay,
You will have to pay : the rest ...
-Your transportation towards the Hautes-Alpes (Briancon, Guillestre, or other) :
-your half-board (optional) ,
-if need be, your ski and shoes rent,
-drinks and personal expenses.
For some bigger and more exposed routes in high moountain, my prices can be higher. For instance :
Registration: -> CONTACT ME <-
It can be also very interesting to leave from the top of a station. So, with a reasonnable ascent, we can enjoy wilder mountains, and very big slopes !
Let's see a video of a day like that from Serre Chevalier (for good skier) :-> video ski Dômes de Monetier <-
The gears:
I will bring the collective and aids gears : a first aid box, maps, GPS, satellite phone, and an "Arva + spade + probe" per person (if you do not have yours).
Let's see : -> What gears for the ski touring ? <-
