Area #3 in CH...Verbier....

Another weekend rolled around and it was off to Verbier.On Saturday I rolled up with J into the Valais. On the way we stopped in Montreax to see the X-mas mart and get some chow. This place was pretty cool with a ton of little stand sellin everything from cheese to pottery.

After a little walk around Montreax we stopped up at Lavey Les Bain and chilled in the hotsprings and moved onto Verbier. Below is the view from the hotel La Rotonde

After a little sleep and food it was time to hit the slopes. We caught the early ride on the Funispace:

The pics below are all from the Mont Fort area. This is just killer. The pics of the cross are from a little walk way that you had to climb up to an area that was 3 feet wide on top of a 3500M mtn! A little scary, but worth the view!

By the end of the day the clouds rolled in but not until we hit the Fort and some good spots of pow. The snow overall was thin, but I can't wait to come back in season
