Corbeau's ski lift line Map

From the top of the "Corbeau's" ski lift head left; there's really easy navigation as you stay close the trees on your left side. This area is quite steep so good skills are needed. The first part of the line is the main danger avalanche wise. The forest helps to keep the area safe. More or less from the top this route is a straight line. At just below 2000 meters, the snow cover and quality is usually good. Join the blue slope "Le Lac (Chatel) " at the bottom
