Grand Balme Couloir P3
Backcountry Skiing Route
Details
0.45 mi
0 ft
An amazing couloir reserved for expert skiers only.
From the top of the cable car follow the Descente black piste or the Grande Motte North Face to the bottom of the Rosolin drag lift. Now continue in the same direction, heading away from the lift and traverse under the Dome de Pramecou. This could be a bootpack or more easily skinned. Once below the Dome de Pramecou ski down tending right in a beautiful North facing bowl which brings you to the bottom of a large amphitheater. Traverse left to the top of the third Couloir. Ski the steep couloir finishing on the piste. Written by Charlie Boscoe
