Not as much snow as opening day last year here in Chamonix, but still plenty of pillows to ski. We had a fun day made much better by the 15cm of fresh that fell the night before. As all opening days should be we rode hard all day and left the Grands Montet feeling battered, bruised and muscles aching. It seems our summer/winter ski touring in South America is not the same as a winter lapping pow on chair lifts here in Chamonix!
