High-Elevation Lift-Served "Backcountry" Skiing

This is looking down the Canale del Cesso, which means, roughly, the toilet canal. It wasn't shitty. It was steep. Most people do this with a guide, we've heard, but we did it with our skis. It worked out pretty well.

This is Russ, coming out of the Cesso. He's initiating a turn here, just like in all my photos, apparently.

This is Louise, squatting a grump on the Toula glacier. If you don't know what that means, ask a former summer-camp counselor.
