Introduction and advanced ski touring (Isère)

Description

I would like to invite you to spend a wonderful day in the mountains and discover ski touring or to become self-sufficient.

If you are a downhill skier, this outing is your chance to discover the freedom of the mountains, far from the ski lifts. Whether you are a beginner or an occasional touring skier, you will learn the basics to move towards autonomy.

This day's ski touring in the massifs surrounding Grenoble (Belledonne, Chartreuse, Vercors, Taillefer) or a little further afield (Vanoise, Écrins, etc.) will give you the chance to get out into nature, take your time, look up, enjoy a picnic at the summit and experience the joy of a well-deserved descent. An aperitif and debriefing will round off this wonderful day in the mountains.

I invite you to come and spend a wonderful day in the mountains discovering ski touring or learning to be self-sufficient.

If you are an alpine skier, this outing is an opportunity to discover freedom far from the ski lifts. Whether you are a beginner or occasional ski tourer, you will learn the basics of the activity so that you can progress towards independence.

This ski touring day takes place in the mountains surrounding Grenoble (Belledonne, Chartreuse, Vercors, Taillefer) or a little further north or south (Vanoise, Écrins, etc.). .

You will have the opportunity to explore the great outdoors, take your time, look up, enjoy a picnic at the summit, and experience the joy of a well-deserved descent. A drink and a debriefing will conclude this beautiful day in the mountains.

During the day, beginners will learn how to use their equipment, master effective climbing techniques, and practice kick turns. I will also give them tips on how to enjoy the descent in all types of snow. With more experienced skiers, we will discuss outing preparation, route selection before and during the outing, snow science, etc.

To improve your downhill technique, I offer ski courses for ski touring around Grenoble, as well as freeride skiing days in Alpe d'Huez or La Grave.
