I have just spent the last week in Zermatt skiing on and off piste and ski touring.  On monday we ski toured over to the Cima di Jazzi on the Swiss-Italian border and then desended to Gant.  There has been a lot of high winds in the region leading to difficult skiing conditions on ‘giant’ sastrugi at some points.  Other areas were holding good powder or spring snow.

It then snowed tuesday and wednesday leading to excellent off piste conditions later in the week. 

This week i am at the CIC hut tuesday and wednesday and then potentially i will be back on the Ben on friday if conditions hold.
