April Snow

Ski mountaineers in Biella had reason to celebrate this week as, after a very dry winter, the end of March saw the arrival of 30cm of fresh snow. Some of our friends headed into Valsavaranche in Valle d’Aosta where they went to Col di Entrelor (3007m). They enthusiastically recounted the fantastic powder descents to us on their return..

As it continued to snow throughout the week-end, those of us who prefer rock climbing escaped to the coast in search of sunshine and limestone…bliss! We managed to enjoyed some new routes at Terminal before the rain reached us around 5 o’clock, just as we were packing up to leave. It was a race to the car down slippery limestone ledges and terraces full of rosemary and cherry trees in an attempt not to get completely soaked!
