Why not attempt the Mont Blanc ascent on skis at the end of the winter season? When spring starts to become more apparent in the valleys, the higher parts of the mountains remain in the grip of winter for a few more weeks, with a snow level at about 2000m. Each morning you will be given the chance to explore a new summit or a new descent amongst the numerous routes that the Vanoise and Beaufort mountain ranges offer. As well as the unique sensations experienced when skiing “spring snow”, we may also be lucky enough to stumble upon a valley shaded from the sun where we can savour some powder turns which sometimes happens at this time of the year. We also take pleasure in a mountain that has become wild again as the winter crowds have gone. After a few days of training and preparation, we will finish the week’s ski touring by attempting to climb Mont Blanc in order to ski back down to the valley. ATTENTION: This course of the “Evasion Program” is offered by some of our High Mountain Guides and under their entire responsibilities.
