Powder Hounds
Trig is late this week but comes with news of the new Aguille du Midi Station, James Bond's parents demise and shots of some powder hounds.
Snow is falling still and conditions down from the Aguille are now the best they have been all season with many of the runs down into town now complete.
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
