GSSucks...you're definitely going to get an invite on my Mike[emoji768] sponsored ski trip to Europe. [emoji6]
I love this trip report.  There is a distinct lack of Rosé consumption, however.

Started the day late today because all the resorts in the valley were on hold because of snow. It looked like Le Tour had the most terrain open so we hopped on a bus and headed there, it was super socked in when we got to the top so we decided to leave after one run and head back to Grands Montets. We heard they got 28cm since noon yesterday and most of the mountain was closed yesterday. We took a few runs in the magical forest then headed back to the honey hole we found yesterday. It was just as deep if not deeper, but a little wind effected. Had some more great turns and ended the day at the hut for a beer. Last ski day is tomorrow and it’s still snowing a bit, kind of hoping the sun pops so patrol can get some fresh terrain open. Time will tell.

Last day at Grands Montets, and more face shots were had. Legs were feeling a bit tired but the snow was deep and we headed back to the honey hole for 5 hot laps, ended the day with a beer, hot wine and fondue at a little hut off trail. I didn’t pull out my phone at all today but we got some great go-amateur video that may or may not get edited. It’s still nuking in town but unfortunately we fly out tomorrow morning. This was a trip for the books for all of us for sure, can’t wait to come back! de5eb24ca616407abc6f3c3256ebb023.jpg

Great trip/report....probably best one of the season...Skiing in Europe has such a different vibe than the U.S......My last time there was Kitzbuhel in the late 90s...

Was a real eye opener for me...

Props to you guys for gettin it done!
