Piste Paul's photo of himself and his son, very happy because there was plenty of snow, in Sauze on Friday.

Strangely enough I don't remember anyone grumbling that day about having to ski whilst it was snowing! ;)

Piste Paul's photo of himself, Felthorpe (not that you can see much of her!) and her husband standing opposite to the Wickham family, with Far Queue on the right, taken on Tuesday I think in Sauze before it started to snow.

Piste Paul's photo - Ian Wickham getting off the chairlift at the top in Sauze, on Tuesday. As you can see, it was pretty difficult doing this without falling over because of the lack of snow and the ice!
I was getting off and one ski took off on it's own (with my leg still attached) so I lifted it off the ground and skied on one leg and fortunately one of the group was next to me and he pushed me back across or we could both have fallen over!

Piste Paul's photo of Brooksy pointing, 2 of the Wickhams, and Far Queue, on Monday or Tuesday.

Photo Piste Paul (well, his son's presumably) of Piste Paul and Bald-eagleman trying not to flatten a ski school class in Sauze, on Monday or Tuesday.

The pistes weren't too crowded, until the snow fell and the sun came out. I think the worst day was the final Sunday when I was ski-ing without the group and there were loads of people especially on the lower pistes.

Piste Paul's photo of Old Boarder's son. I loved his mohican green helmet and it meant you could spot him from miles away, or from the chairlift :)
He improved loads during the week, learning from the other boarders in the group :)

Piste Paul's photo of Bald-Eagleman ski-ing down into Sauze on Monday or Tuesday. You can see what a fantastic job they did keeping some pistes open for us when you look at the bare ground beside the piste!



You can also see the La Torre hotel tower. The Sauze hotel had a special deal whereby we could go swimming etc. in the La Torre spa half price during the day. And in fact several of our group went in there during the evening and got an excellent discount! :)

We had one non skier with us, and she found plenty to do during the day in Sauze, and went to the spa in the evening with one of the others when they'd finished ski-ing. I think it's about a 5 minute walk from our hotel.
