By Robin Deering, Updated

New from Chamonix is the Cham Lines videos from Aurelien Ducroz, in this third episode Ducroz teams up with Léo Slemet and Christophe Henry to take on the Couloir de L'ENSA, which is a steep, 40+ degree, line off the top of the Brevent.

The vertical drop is around 1500m with 400m the tight couloir itself, this is pure Chamonix freeride skiing - technically difficult and often there is a serious avalanche risk. Anyone considering skiing this couloir should do so with an experienced ski guide.
