Courchevel 2016

Just back from a fabulous week in Courchevel with the Gordon Skiers.  We had 11 mad ski racers and their accompanying parents.  Started off with plenty of fresh powder.  The Sunday was overcast and snowing so skied the lower mountain both on and off piste (mainly on the piste for me!).  After that the weather gradually improved and the middle part of the week was fab with clear skies.

Tuesday saw an excursion right across the 3 valleys heading over to Meribel and then Les Menuires and up towards Val Thorens before heading back.  Legs were exhausted on the way back.

The kids had a great time training on the Stad Courchevel in the afternoons with a mix of GS and slalom training.

Many thanks go to Gary and Wilma for all their support and guiding over the week.  Great shame that young Ben broke his leg but am sure he will bounce back in no time.
