Description

"Turn right at the top of Belvedere chairlift, then take a quick break at the viewing point and then go left of the red netting.

Traverse 60m, then you are there at the top of the slope.This wildish slope will offer a choice of 3 different lines.

The right one being the easiest (32°) at the top but could be slightly more dangerous (few rocks sticking out depending on snow).

The middle one being the best, without any real danger in case of a fall.

On both these lines, you stay right of a prominent rock cliff.

The steepest part is the top and then it gradually ""flatten up"".

If from the top, you carry on traversing an extra 20m to be on the left hand side of the cliff you can get some ""couloir"" skiing.

This 3rd line being the steepest.

You are in between 2 sets of rocks, forming a 20m wide couloir then gradually decrease to 10m.

Good way to get a feel of what couloir skiing can be! Half-way down, it gets wider and easier so you can put your head up and enjoy Mont Blanc being right there just in front of you.

At the end, you can aim for the electric pylon on your right to join back San Bernardo (7) red run and then Fourclaz express chairlift.

If you are in a rush to head back to La Rosière, then aim for the electric pylon on your left and take Liason (22) ble run back to Piccolo San Bernardo chairlift.

This off-piste will give you good snow after it settled (chances of slips at the top) and is protected by a gazex pipe.

Not such a dangerous off-piste, but a fall could become costly."
