Cabane Mont Fort

We finally took advantage of the pass we have at Verbier and spent a couple days at the Cabane de Mont Fort, The cabane lies on the slopes of Verbier at an altitude of 2457m.  It is a regular stop for those doing the famous “Haute Route” ski tour from Chamonix to Zermatt. We had the luxury of having a family room.

The boys were ecstatic to have bunk beds. This was a perfect altitude for sleeping and training at as I prepped for the last races of the season, the Mezzalama. I took advantage of the great weather, set my alarm with the “haute routers” and set off  with my skis and skins to catch the morning sunrise

I returned back with plenty of time for breakfast back at the cabin.

Morning game of cards and cocoa

and  then spend the days skiing the slopes with the boys.

Heading up the Rainbow Tram

Not a bad day to miss school!

I had my eye on a couloir just above the hut. The next morning I set off and had a nice little ski down and then once again was back for breakfast.
