air


My earlier photos of the slopes made it look fairly deserted. Naturally, around the ski stations there's plenty of people. The wide range of feeder cable car routes make this inevitable. Although it looks like a free-for-all it is really quite orderly as people go through the Oyster card style gates to get onto the individual gondolas. I reckon the queue time was only a matter of two or three minutes.

The alternative to using the main slopes is to walk to one of the freestyle areas, ideally carrying a snowboard, to enable some proper air action.

And anyway, once down a slope, there's plenty of spots to pause, maybe to drink in some sunshine, maybe something else as well.

But let's don the Volcom and go take a look over the edge.

There's various ways to get started...

But what goes up must surely come down...

Sometimes moving the show around just a little bit.

Or, just throw some snow around. It still looks dramatic.

Those snow machines will soon put it all back in the right place.

And here's another one of a wider area, to show that there's something for everyone.

So, choose your style and pursue it with vigour.
