I finally made it out of the chalet for a quick spin around Les Gets yesterday (Monday 1st June) – just to see what’s new. Well the good news is that they’ve certainly been doing some work over there. Lots of tweaks to the two main downhill courses and as Gareth mentioned, they’re building a new track under the Nauchet lift. I believe the plan is for that lift to service at least two tracks and a ‘bike park’ near the bottom. We also rode the “Kids” green run – probably harder than the Chavannes as the corners aren’t bermed but you can get up some speed if you want to on the straights – good for practicing those flat corners!

So in short:

Tweaks to the Chavannes DH run:

• Remains the same overall.
• Top ’ski jump’ has been built up.
• A few new easy doubles built in.
• A bigish gap jump to clear in the woods where some old woodwork was
• ‘Ski Jump’ built up in the woods.

Tweaks to the Mt Chery DH run “On The Gas”

• The run also remains the same except:
• A few doubles and drops dotted about
• Last drop near the bottom is bigger than expected!

So there we go! new bits showing promise of more to come. We shall see what comes.

Sorry for the poor selection of two photos – more next week I promise!
