Back in Auron

Thanks to our fantastic day of skiing at Auron last weekend, we were rather keen to get back to it this weekend. Our original plan was to do an overnight trip at Isola 2000 (or some other ski resort within striking distance of the Riviera), but due to a somewhat dodgy weather forecast for the Saturday, we decided to opt for a day trip on Sunday instead.

Our destination changed as well - we ended up going back to Auron, due to the signs saying snow chains were mandatory for accessing Isola 2000 (Isola 2K is a bit higher up than Auron...). To avoid any mishaps in the snow, we decided to park down in Saint-Etienne this time, from where we took the ski cabin up to Auron.

We were up for a treat once again - the skiing was pretty much perfect. Maybe the snow was a bit harder than the weekend before, and there were a bit more folks on the slopes, but overall, fantastic day of skiing again. Not a cloud in the sky... (well, apart from a couple of ones, just to make the photos look a bit nicer!) We lunched at the same place as last weekend, yummie yummie again. So pretty much a perfect way to spend a winter Sunday, then!
