Valley next to the ski resort Map

We took a Yandex to get us up in the parc, we negociated to pay 700SOM, the cheapest driver we found so far! The driver left us in the small village next to the bridge. The ski was very easy with some indiana jones on the way up because we bumped into a dry face, but the way down was pretty cool on the North-East side with still some powder conserved! James joined us again for this day, was great! It is also possible to do so horse riding with skis for the way down on this valley. Ask the guy at the gate.
