Shuriken For Sale Ontario

Sirente Monte, South side

Time and 'bad, there' storm and avalanche danger ... If it were not for D. who was skiing on ... I would have stayed home. Instead
... Here we are, D., little sister and myself headed Ovindoli as half the quiet southern side of Sirente. From
Ovindoli take the road of the Val d'Aran and parked where the snow does not allow us more 'to continue.
Here are two other ski-mountaineers, G. and A., and decide to go together.
That 's the map of the area:


Track green 'route of descent that follow.
The track up and 'out ... 'cause I forgot to turn on the GPS at the start.

after the obvious outcome of a brief discussion to decide if dispatched to a location unknown, complicated and certainly from the mouth or not quite sure whether to follow the cart path to the canon, already 'known to everyone (except myself and my little sister) ... we enter the gorge
:-) What is really funny.
skis soon become out of trouble:

despite the dense woods yet ...


At the end of the forest

go out in a valley more 'open, despite a very nice tank-trailer parked in the center ... who knows' how to have it brought!

We go up on our right shoulder, and that 'steep and full of snow, sometimes frozen.
Once on the ridge, there appears before the quiet south side of Sirente:

At times the sky above us and to the south will open ... Sirente will remain the top of the 'always hidden in clouds throughout the day.
It will not open even when we arrived. Finally

at top:

If you look towards the Canale Maiori:

The descent is for the track green on the map above.
Snow and 'bad and low slope (and' in effect, a trip that you can 'do with touring skis) for which the Embassy will not be' great satisfaction in reality ', despite a thousand meters of altitude ahead.

The descent to the cart, particularly given the late hour that the spappato this much snow, and 'dramatic accomplice of the bad waxing my skis, boots and bindings at the end open and I start to step down in alternating .
