A mountain that barely needs an introduction. Home of the "Xtreme Verbier" and Freeride World Tour where the best of the best come and showcase their skills on the extreme face of the Bec des Rosses. There have been countless lines opened on this face. The dog leg gets its name from the shape at the top of the line. Ski straight from the summit. If you're coming to ski here, you don't need us to show you the way. :)
