Ski Day #3 at La Clusaz

Visit Date: Saturday, 11th January, 2014

So I had been trying to prepare myself to go on a blue slope for the Full Moon Party (18th Jan), and I did a few green runs on this day and then I went and tried a blue with my more advanced ski friend, H. It was a disaster if I'm honest. The slope was too steep so I just got terrified and slid down most of it rather than skiing, and it really knocked my confidence on the slopes. By the time I got down to where the blue slope joins the green I was that tired I could barely control my skis, and as a consequence I fell so badly that I twisted my already injured knee (from a bike accident 2 years ago). I'd paid 30€ for the pass up the mountain and had time to go again but I really couldn't face it. I was a little defeated, but at least I got a great view from the top.

The Full Moon Party got cancelled in the end due to avalanche warnings, but I will try to get back on the slopes sometime soon!
