Equipments
There is indispensable equipment required in order to go off-piste or ski touring. We will be able to provide you with all avalanche safety equipment (transceiver, shovel, probe, backpack with airbag etc).
On your side of things, as well as owning suitable ski touring or off-piste clothing you will have to purchase your ski pass, skis and helmet hire, and your own insurance.
Do not hesitate to contact me if you need advice on equipment such as choosing the right ski for you or any other query !

You don't have to be the best skier in the world in order to experience off-piste or ski touring, in fact far from! However to assure your safety at all times, we do ask for a minimum ski level that you are comfortable skiing red slopes and able to get down easy black slopes.
About me
With over 15 years of experience as a Ski Patroller and subsequently a ski instructor, I have specialized in off-piste and ski touring. As an ANENA trainer (avalanche safety), safety and an in-depth knowledge of the mountain environment are at the very heart of my practice.With more than 15 years experience combined working in the mountains as part of a mountain rescue team and as a ski instructor, I have decided to specialize in my passion - Off piste skiing and ski touring.
As an ANENA trainer, mountain safety and snow science are at the very core of my expertise.
I am based in Meribel, at the heart of the 3 Valleys, and it would be my absolute pleasure to help you discover this stunning area that I call home. While the Savoie region is my main base, I also lead ski touring trips across other massifs, allowing us to explore new horizons together.
I would be thrilled to take you off the beaten path, far from the ski lifts, to create unforgettable memories and capture stunning photos and videos of your adventures.
