In order to keep my ear close to the ground in the ski touring world, I am going on a ski touring trip! (It’s not a holiday, honest!) A week in the Bernese Oberland in Switzerland, in the company of Mountain Tracks guides Matt Dickinson and Olly Allen. Weather permitting there will be the chance to summit a 4000m peak and ski some pretty amazing decents without ever going below 2000m. I will of course be testing some new kit, mainly a new lightweight range of CAMP hardware that we thinking of stocking next winter plus the Compressor and Prolite Jackets from Mountain Equipment.
So nothing on the blog for the next 10 days or so but a full report on kit and experience when I return.
