Langton Locals
24 Feb
Spring nowhere in sight
But the lambs are out in numbers in the fields around Langton
There were at least fifty of the cute little critters

Les Bozeliers se Revenant
Feb 4th - Feb 11th 2018
Seven skiers plus a Thomski founder member back to the regular venue
After last years glitch prone and mixed weather week it was great to get better weather, cold and mostly bright with and (almost) no snags!
The Thomski operation continues to range free across three systems and all terrain.
Monday Champagny - La Plagne (7)
Tuesday Champagny - La Plagne (7)
Wednesday Pralognan la Vanoise (5)
Thursday Champagny - La Plagne (3)
Friday Courcheval (7)
Saturday Champagny - La Plagne (6)
Ready to roll down one of the Rossa runs
Courcheval system across the valley
Irresistable
It's a generation game
Team members queue up to pose with today's birthday boy......
(or maybe vice versa?)
Don't mention the lunch
We won't be going back!
This year's kit
Elan Amphibio 86
at 176cm
Best skis since the Scott Aztec Pro's
Members taking in the atmospherics up high at Pralognan
Cloud inversions persist on Thursday in la Plagne
(3 out)
View across to the floating Beaufortain range
Meet up at the Alpina for a very pleasant lunch
Following a freak binding flip Mike heads off in snow cat to secure repairs on the run at Courcheval 1650
Had trouble keeping up with these two after a rather long and liquid lunch
CJ grabs a brief kip at 1650
Binding replaced pronto!
Saturday venture out to lunch at La Roche
Two v cold runs off the Rossa, coffee and warm up at Borseliers and back up to the Quillis
Route in red
Via Quillis, Colosses, and Plagne 1800 lifts, 12.40 at the Chalet la Roche Restaurant, what a spot!
Chalet La Roche

Lunch!
