Last weeks Val d'Hérens Ski Tours saw challenging weather at times (although nice by Norwegian standards apparently!) but that meant we had great snow and miles of great ski touring. Not just untracked snow - whole, untracked mountains! We skied at Nax, Arolla, Col des Ignes, Pallanche de la Cretta, Evolene - Pic d'Artsinol, and Col de Bréona, and some days saw more Chamois than skiers...
