Grande Balme Couloir P1
Backcountry Skiing Route
Details
1.64 mi
147 ft
A spectacular 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 right to the top of the first Couloir. Ski the couloir finishing on the piste. Written by Charlie Boscoe
