D -1 - Skitour Sulens

As a final tribute to this winter's training to keep fit in prep for this summer's flying season, I set out to enjoyed a final Ski Tour up Mont Sulens, before leaving for South Africa and the first of the paragliding competitons for me this season, tomorrow.




What a beautiful day. 1770m to the summit from the valley, we covered about 800m vertical which was enough after a 2hr long gym session a couple of hours before.
the view was just stunning and we enjoyed a steaming cup of Chai on the summit before skiing down through untracked powder snow which, oddly enough had not transformed to spring snow with the warmer weather (6° during the day).

What a fabulous way to spend the last day before I leave.
