Skiing at Névache, checking out the marathon loop for tomorrow's race. Because of a lack of snow, they modified the normal course, which climbs the Vallée de la Clarée from the bottom, to a loop just at the top of the valley. As the bottom part of the course mostly just went along a river, this actually made the course have much more climb than the normal version. Was really good to see the course, no scary corners and got the sense that the stiff Q2 skis were definitely the way to go over the super soft skis with a dry cold grind.
