At Serre Chevalier, tired legs meet tempting powder: from Montagnolle to Cucumelle, an off-piste day shaped around the group, with time for a good lunch.
The group I meet this Saturday in Serre Chevalier is looking a little depleted after an intense week of off-piste skiing!
The effects of the previous days are obvious from the very first run. Yet this little descent of Montagnolle is rather good! The wind has filled the old tracks with snow: lovely stuff. Still, there is no arguing with the verdict. Most of these legs are ready for the spa!
Much of the group opts for an easy programme of pistes and coffee stops. Meanwhile, I head off to hunt down a few fresh turns on Cucumelle with the group’s last survivor.
A good choice: fantastic snow, few tracks and a finish almost straight onto the restaurant terrace…
After a very decent lunch, we pick up one more willing skier and head back for another lap of Cucumelle. No reason to deny ourselves the good things!
It is a little too late to ski the Couloir des Corneilles, our original plan. So we give in once again to the charms of a valley even better than the first… Simple as that!
We finish the day feeling thoroughly relaxed. The legs have had their say, but we have still found plenty to enjoy!
