Ski touring week end around Aix les Bains

Man, that was a fun week end, again! I went to Aix les Bains for the week end, where I stayed at the Moreau's homestead, with Denis. Obviously, we did some ski touring to occupy the long day. :D We did a longish tour around Pic du Frene, long especially for me with my poor skiing technique... It's hard to admit, but i finished the day quite exhausted... To recover from that the following day, we did a shorter tour in the Bauges ranges, with not as good conditions, but it was still fun! So where the evenings, with some good food&drinks... And good compagny! Was good to catch back with JP, Monique and Steph, who I haven't seen since when I left for NZ... Thanks to all of you to have been my skiing instructors for the week end!





Oh, yeah, and I got some new ice tools! (I only say that to make Travis jealous, of course) I got the Grivel Matrix Tech, which look cool! Many thanks to Titi to spend time to buy them for me! :)

Excellent, some gear porn!!! Those tools look like fun, I'll be jealous when you get out and use them.

Oh and the skiing looks neat too.

Nice swing, I guess!!! (Travis told us once that it was better than "nice color")

Their red color still match well with my new red thermal long sleeves T-shirt! ;o)

Well Caroline, that's true for most people, but as you can see with Romaric, it is better to say 'OH MY GOD, that red is just fabulous!' and 'I just LOVE how your tools go with the wallpaper!'

a very long time to have your tools in fact, hope you will enjoy them!
