Wednesday, January 04, 2006 Off for a weeks snowboarding in Chamonix on the 15th of January. 8 of us in all, staying in a proper nice chalet run by the very sound crew at Fresh Traxxx.
From the Fresh Traxx website:
Downstairs, there are 2 of the double bedrooms, the kitchen (that you can avoid at all times!), dining room (with pool table), two bathrooms and ski prep area and drying room with table football. Upstairs are the rest of the bedrooms, a big bathroom . . . . and then the living room where it all happens. Complete with a bar, log fire, Sky TV (a load of good videos, DVD’s and music), XBox, PS2, CD & MD, board games and backgammon; you will not be bored. Outside on the sundeck there is a monster BBQ, and a 7/8 man Jacuzzi to bubble away all those aches and pains. Ideal for big or small groups and lone travellers alike!
Can't fucking wait to be honest... it's been 5 years since I was last in Chamonix, but the memories are still some of the best! Awesome ski areas with huge off piste potential... it's also nice to do it in a bit more style than usual, the last time we were in Chamonix 5 of us were rammed into a tiny self catering apartment. This years High Mountain Lodge is a fully catered affair... breakfast and dinner cooked for us?!
Looking forward to shooting some shots in and around the snowpark too... fast ol' shutter speeds should create some quality static memories to take home. The chalet has broadband and wi-fi and the trusty Powerbook will accompany me on the trip so check back soon for sporadic updates and accompanying photos.
