We set out to do a 5 day ski tour the other day in the Ecrins National Park, going from refuge to refuge starting out at 3,200m at the top of the La Grave ski area..  It was meant to be a magnificent tour, with amazing views and no washing for 5 days.  After one full day, we ski-ed out, soaked and happy to be off the mountain.  The weather was just too bad, high wind, heavy snow and risky avalanche conditions all added up.  Ho hum.  We got 2 or 3 pics as we were on our way out.
