When Summer Meets Winter: Riding a Two-Season Ridge

Early snow turned our usual trails into a two-season landscape: dry rock on one side, fresh powder on the other. The video, and our guided trips in the Aosta Valley.

Even as guides, days off are rare and precious. Our latest outing was no exception, but it offered an absolutely unexpected and magnificent spectacle!

As we were trying to tick off a few items on our long guide's to-do list, the snow made a premature appearance, transforming our usual trails into an absolutely incredible two-season landscape. Imagine riding a ridge, with dry rock on one side and a thin layer of fresh powder on the other... This contrast of raw beauty was a gift to us.
