Jonathan is at a very windy Le Tour enjoying the copious amounts of fresh snow. Conditions generally are excellent. He also talks about the benefits of unlimited use of the Courmayeur lift system through the Mont Blanc Tunnel, available to those skiing in Chamonix this winter.

Jonathan Trigell is the author of the multi award winning book Boy A - recently dramatised by Channel 4 - and 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
