This is apparently the Swiss National 4x track. We rode it once on the way back to Morzine from Morgins. a trip of about 40km on lifts and some XC and DH

From left to right. Nic Criticos, Dave Hartley, Mark Hopkins, Dom Bright, Vince Muir and me on Kneeling in front.

 

This is at the top of the Super Morzine/Zore side of Morzine. To our left is Avoriaz. Vince, Nic and I were on our way to Morgins While Dom, Mark and Dave rode Zore and Chatel.

Bro. It's worth selling a kidney for a trip like this.

haha! A kidney yes... I have 2 of those. But not the Ndiza!

 

Hopefully next year I won't be making any expensive bike purchases and can ride some ski lifts!

Bottom of Les Gets main line. See if you can spot the rider on track. Yes it really is that big.

The best bit of trail I've ever ridden. Les Gets Main line. Hip, wooosh, rough, little drop, table, right hand berm, table, left hand berm, right hand berm, table, table, into the forest, table. Stop and shake out.

nice one dude - must have been awesome - did you ride the Les Gets World Cup track at all?

 

Ja. That's on Mont Cherie. You can only ride the 2nd half of the track but that's like 2 1/2 km.

AND??? i hear its as rough and as steep as F...K

 

Yeah it was loads of fun. Rough at the start and 3 SSSTEEEEEEEEPPPP corners close to the bottom. The first time I rode it I was on a rented bike and the track was wet so it was quite scary but it was loads of fun.

 

But for steepness you can't beat Chatel. OMG that place is so steep.
