Did some guiding around Megeve and St Gervais slopes today though the people I was with are regulars and know their way around pretty well. It was a gorgeous day, the sun was shining and the snow was incredible. These could be the best conditions I’ve seen here for a very, very long time. The Belle d’Arbois piste is little used by many people but is one of the loveliest pistes looking over Megeve. It gets bare patches quite quickly on the steeper sections which can make it tricky but in these conditions, it was superb.

One of the boys I was skiing with, Martin, had great reflective goggles, which made a perfect mirror to the scenery and us others in the gondola with him.
