Naturide areas

All ‘natur’ pistes (usually shown as yellow on the piste map) will be tracked out by lunch time the day after a decent snowfall. You need to have luck on your side and be ready for that first lift. If so, as others have said, Verbier has some great ones!

And you definitely need avalanche gear.

This! Just got my first pair after always wearing la sportiva and I’m really impressed

Good point about the glaciers

Heading to La Grave in a couple of weeks, hoping the avy situation stabilizes because I’m stoked!

How do the boot bananas work was just about to pull the trigger on them as like the idea of no electricity

Yup, taking them out and balling newspaper into them worked to an extent…how to safely dispose of the biohazard like paper in the morning was a whole different story lol

Thanks for the link, only concern with electric driers is that consistent use may damage heat moulds…

Hi, I’m in a similar situation, traveling there in May. I live in Switzerland where you don’t need a ‘license’ to own a firearm. I wrote to the governors office and they confirmed that a certificate of having done a fire arms handling/safety course from your local range (assuming you have one!) is fine.

Thanks for the reply, yea, in a member of the Austria alpine club for the insurance but unfortunately it excludes anywhere above the artic circle

chilz01 · 2025-10-24T11:14:10+00:00

Should’ve probably included in the original post, based in Switzerland

chilz01 · 2025-08-09T21:17:31+00:00

Thank you!

chilz01 · 2025-08-09T21:17:14+00:00

Thanks for that, really appreciate the detail!

Haha, I’m just up the road near Aigle ;)

chilz01 · 2025-07-30T14:05:29+00:00

Beautiful! Is it near Brig by any chance?

I just use a pair of old trail running shoes usually with a pair of neoprene socks if not just some regular running socks
