The first ever winter Olympics were held in the Chamonix Valley in 1924.  There was no “downhill” skiing at this event but Cross-country skiing was featured.   While Chamonix is renowned for it’s downhill skiing not many people realise just how great the Chamonix Valley is for cross-country.  Exodus guests on the Mont Blanc Winter Activity weeks however  have put in many a meddle worthy performance on the Chamonix trails!  Elaine and I can’t wait to ski them again this winter. ...

Only a week and a half to go now. When I signed up for this in the early summer, November seemed far far away! Now departure date and EBC are looming. Fitness OK, although untried, kit ready, excitment mounting.

The best part though is knowing we are doing this for a greater cause. Just had the first pictures back from ONE of the play pump Exodus has sponsored in Malawi. Now a school and a wider community have clean safe water to drink. A real practical difference on the ground.
