Most Inspirational Moment
Not sure if inspirational is the word but it was exhilarating to be up on the plateau skiing in very adverse conditions (ice, high winds) but with the most beautiful views of the white wild coutryside. To get back safely in the evening after having battled the elements!
Thoughts on Group Leader
Both Ilse and Mary were great. They helped navigate the complexities of waxing the skiis. They were encouraging and thoughtful in their guidance. They put a lot extra in with fun warm-ups and relaxing cool downs, evening activities and a brilliant photo show on the last night of our week's efforts. I skiied more with Ilse who was truely inspirational and a very skilled instructor.
Advice for Potential Travellers
There is plenty of variety for vegetarians and healthy options - I found the food excellant so need to bring any extras. The packed lunch buffet was extensive as was breakfast. It says in the trip notes but I did not read it to take gaiters. Also needed are lots of layers. No need for anything fancy for dinner! Get fit before going - I though I was reasonably fit but my arms need a lot more work before going next time (and I will go back).
