There would be no shortage of snow in Tignes during this World Para Alpine Skiing World Cup! It just kept on falling.....for days! A call to arms was raised and the coaches from all teams manifested to dig out the team carpark! I grabbed the opportunity to photograph it and hitched a ride in a snowcat plowing the snow out of the carpark. This lead to me getting another ride in a snowcat in the evening, but this time to head up on to the competition piste to see how it would be bashed and groomed into condition. Little did I realise just how much snow there really was up there! Two blogs to read:
