Here is just a short video of some of my exploits on Boxing Day (26th Dec). Accompanied by Guy Copner, we ascended the Col du Belvedere on skins from the top of the Index at Flegere. Going via Lac Blanc we arrived at the top (2780m) before dropping down into the Berard Valley.
Because of all the fresh snow and the risk of slipping, we rappelled the first 30m of the narrow couloir before pulling the rope and enjoying 1800m of beautiful, fresh north facing powder!
Starting point: Flégère cable car
Height difference: 680m up, 1800m down
Grade: AD, 45°
Timing: 4-5hrs
Time of year: December – May
Enjoy and stay safe!
