Looking back up the Petite Gervasutti after our run.
|
 |
Skinning over to the Tour Rond. In the background is the Aiguille Verte, Droits and Courtes.
|
 |
On the way up the couloir.
|
 |
Nearing the top. When we skied back down we went skiers left of these rocks.
|
 |
Check out the snow on the final summit ridge.
|
 |
Tim at the top. Grands Jorasses and the Dent du Geant in the background.
|
 |
Time to go. In the background is Mt Blanc, and on the right the snow on the Diagonal route on Mt Maudit is looking good.
|
 |
First couple of turns are good. On skiers right is the north face of the Tour Rond.
|
 |
Into the couloir proper.
|
 |
Is that a big grin on Tim's face?
|
 |
Tim rips it up.
|
 |
Out of the narrow section.
|
 |
Good snow still to be found.
|
 |
Tim comes through the narrow section. Tim thought he found another way through here but it went horribly wrong.
|
 |
The final turns before the rimay.
|
 |
Jump turns.

 |
From the IGN mapping software I make it an average angle of 48 degrees, for the record.
