We put in another day of ski touring before the Foehn melted too much snow at lower elevations. This time, a 3 hours tour into the Entremont Valley. It was so wintry near the col de Chargerat! Losing sight of the slopes in moments of white out and wind brought sensations of winter front and center.

The forecast is calling for Foehn the next few days. That should consolidate the snow pack. Hopefully Televerbier will notice the change in weather and update their site. A call to Verbier Sport Plus revealed an intention to open the last weekend of November. Ha!
