Chardonnet Couloir
Backcountry Skiing Route

Excellent and relatively straight forward couloir skiing with only a short hike
The Chardonnet couloir offers excellent couloir skiing. The snow here is often good for a long time thanks to its northerly aspect. From the top of the chair a short hike leads to the col. From the col the couloir starts relatively steeply but never extreme (40 degrees) and gradually widens as the gradient eases off. Continue down the fall line and head right to join the lac piste.
