Minimise the risks of glacier skiing with Simon Christy
Filmed during the winter 2009 on the famous Vallée Blanche, this video shows the basic principles of skiing on glaciers in terms of crevasse spotting and group management.
Directed and produced by Courchevel based ski instructor Simon Christy, the film also features Simon Abrahams, and is narrated by Miles Bright who authored a book on glacier safety and rescue for skiers and boarders. The film team also had technical input from Kath Murphy.
