Last Day of 2007 in Alpe d'Huez

Hello everybody,


This end of the year it has been really especial. We've been with our friends in the mountains, in the village of Auris-en-Oisans, just by the ski station of Alpe d'Huez, in the mountain range of les Grandes Rousses. We were two nights in the village and we spent with them the New Year's Eve.



The last day of the year, we were skiing in Alpe d'Huez. Auris-en-Oisans is a sub-domain of the big ski station. The slopes in Auris are great, with lovely views. We nevertheless crossed to the other side of the valley and joined the Alpe d'Huez slopes. We took the cable-car to the Pic Blanc, summit of the station with 3330 m. The view is awesome from there! Among many others (Mont Blanc included) we were happy to see, from the distance, other summits were we have been last summer (see earlier posts), like la Croix de Belledonne or le Pic de la Mas de la Grave... or even the Lac Lauvitel.

Very nice day, for a great goodbye to 2007. As usual, more pictures can be seen here.

Cheers,
-Manu & Nina-
