Trig is back!

The first report of the new winter comes from Courmeyer, Italy. Now included on the Mont Blanc Unlimited pass Courmeyer is very much a part of the Mont Blanc ski area and Trig has been enjoying lunch and some great powder there.

The best start to the season EVER? Well there's more snow on the way but it is looking pretty good so far.

Jonathan Trigell is the author of the novel Boy A winner of The John Llewellyn Rhys Prize, The Waverton Award and The World Book Day Prize 2008, which was recently turned into a BAFTA winning drama by Film 4. He also wrote the first serious novel about winter sports: Cham. "Trigell’s ski-bum hedonism does for extreme winter sports what Alex Garland’s The Beach did for backpacking" - The Financial Times
