Today Emilie and I took a day trip to the Portes du Soleil ski area on the border of Switzerland and France. It’s about an hour’s drive from Lausanne, which makes for a fairly easy trip. Once again it felt like spring on the mountain and a light jacket was more than enough to keep you warm. The downside was that the snow at lower elevations was extremely slushy on the Swiss side.
We were actually a bit worried about whether we had made a mistake in deciding to go skiing, but once we got to the French side the snow was far better and allowed for some great overall ski conditions when combined with the sunny weather.
We decided to stop for lunch near Avoriaz, which is one of the many resort towns of Portes du Soleil that is right off the pistes.
