How to dispose of the heavy Christmas lunch?? Easy: make good freeride!! The problem is where to go!! With a little 'reluctance to make myself enticed by those who fell in Andermatt 70cm even though in my heart I already know that the half day of sun yesterday will be allowed to chop and more. Let's start with March and Seba. Coming soon. Do the usual cold, the sun is still behind the ridges and pine trees are laden with snow ... so if it were not Andermatt is the perfect condition. We climb and already the second section we see that all the visible ground ... it was also impossible or inconceivable lines (a straight spur plate, no more than three feet wide along a score that throws up a jump of about ten meters ... I have only seen tracks but I think that skiers had wings or a parachute ... it will still be back there in spring!).
We are on top. Looking south. We have snowshoes and might be an idea. ... But after the knee injury of the Immaculate my condition is unknown ... honestly I could go skiing 5 minutes and be forced to retreat. Let's start with a warm easy start pointing the anchor on the right. Here and there still is something but it's a bit 'overwhelming. Fortunately, the knee holds and I'm already happy. After 3 weeks of forced detention I was pretty nervous. We go up again and with the known side leading down to the beautiful handkerchiefs Unteralp of virgins.
threw in a few hundred meters and are able to ride a light snow and beautiful ... too bad that after we are in the bush of Andermatt (an annoying low vegetation consisting of shrubs if not covered by meters of snow makes this really annoying). Starts with a super ravanage ... plus for me not to miss anything I was with the Selecta dovetail and 175cm long!! We try to get to the bottom of the slope but in between is a beautiful gorge that blocks the road. I have to go down among the bushes and find the best step I make the track ... earned enticed by a beautiful pratone right ... how can you resist ... a few seconds later we find ourselves among the snowboarding holiday!
We lost some time. Fortunately there are many people, so soon after we are back on top. All that remains is the usual Fensental groped and if it should be chopped and Snowshoeing on.
We throw a lever inside the fensental and ... incredible ... it was still much to do!! The snow is great and the big table allows me to easily exceed even the areas not too outstanding.
I go straight down to straight knowing that in the middle there will be a huge leap in rock. I'm ready for a sudden turn to the right when I see that the center channel is feasible. Having said that we are inside. A few meters away, you shoot on a second branch still in good condition ... that show. The Selecta after the change (I carved away the spoiler from plastic dovetail) is a spectacle turns at the first hint of the head, the pier also less tiring on light snow or low speed. Now that it has become a weapon for frerride though it remains a bit 'too Morbidelli.
The valley becomes bumpy and we love to get fluids using the terrain seem ... ... jump balls in the sand, bent against the flow, pull straight ... show!
We are in the final right. I know that we must remain high to easily return to the cable car but the bush is really annoying. Still super ravanage. I propose to go right after ... but at least we will return to walk the woods is fun and skiing. Other
around. We're gonna taste. Too bad the sky begins to veil. The visibility falls and we have to change lenses. Start being a bit 'cooked, the lack of training is felt. Third down. Now you do not see anything. I am obliged to follow the tracks do not end up jumps or plateaus.
I'm afraid it's time to return.
At the end we are happy ... but it is no longer the old Andermatt 5 years ago. As I recalled the snow now, can not even lean. It is now saturated, is known and disgraced. The business has also arrived here. The pass has jumped to 50 €. I mean crazy.
I'm leaving with a bitter aftertaste ... and with the thought that hard to come back ... bye Andermatt.
N: B: TO ADDRESS SECURITY IN AN Off Piste (even the most 'trivial near the slopes) and' needs you HAVE transceiver (ON TRANSMISSION IN) shovel and probe. Improvised NOT IF YOU HAVE EXPERIENCE IN THE AREA OR SNOW. ASK A QUALIFIED ALL INFORMATION ON THE CONDITIONS OF DANGEROUS ROUTES AND AREAS THAT ONLY THOSE AWARE OF THE POST. ESSENTIAL FOR MAXIMUM SECURITY AND 'PLAN FOR A HOUSE THAT YOU WANT TO TAKE TIME off-piste skiing, but do not stop THE ONLY BULLETIN: SHOULD ALWAYS CHECK THE POST CAREFULLY THE CONDITIONS OF THE ROUTE AND DECIDE WHETHER THE LAST TIME TO GIVE UP IF and not 'SECURE OR TOO RISKY.
