L'Arolette Couloir
Backcountry Skiing Route
Details
0.55 mi
135 ft
Giving 600 meters of fantastic skiing, this is worth the hike.
Hike from the Tête de Balme chairlift to the summit of L'Arolette then enter the steep North facing couloir and ski it into the Jeurs bowl. Take the flowing terrain back left into the woods and return to the Tête de Balme lift. Beware as these steeper faces in the Le Tour back bowls are notorious for avalanches. Written by Charlie Boscoe
