World’s most extreme Kaffee Klatsch

Kaffee Klatch is a German word.

(KAH-fee klach): noun (from German Kaffee = coffee + Klatch = gossip): a casual gathering for coffee and conversation, usually accompanied by pastry.

Not here in Chamonix, though. Here the gossip and conversation is accompanied by hard-core skiing.

I skied with the Chamonix Girls today. Lisa, Ali, Genviere & Sarah. We skied off the Midi, ski-touring for a couple of hours up to the entrance of the Entreves coulouir - a very steep and gnarly ski down to the village of Entreves in Italy which has just made my must-do list of runs I want to do this winter. Then the decent. Sublime. Skiing fresh tracks in glorious sunshine all down the pictch we’d skinned up and then back down the Vallee Blanche on a new route to the right of the glacier I’ve never done before.

A brilliant day’s skiing - I’m so glad the girls invited me along.
