Field notes from the trip to France 2001.

Feb 11
Snowboarded without guide. Met room-mates. Music-quizz.

Feb 12
First day with guide. Nice powder snow at "Les Tours".
Went to bed at about 22.30. Awesome weather.

Feb 13
Foggy and icy. Surfed at "Brevent et Flegere". Surfed
with the French guys in my group from 15.00 to about 16.30.
Saw a very nice French girl.

Feb 14
Went to "Les Grand Montents". Cissi (swedish) fell and had to
go by helicopter, she sucked anyway, shouldn't be in the group.
Had a icy ride. Riquet, your guide left us and I went with the
French up to the very top of "Les Grand Montents" again. Had a
awsome ride. Fast and smooth. Tried to get some eye connact with
the French girl, but without any luck. Went to a photosession
about Nepal with matching music.

Feb 15
Went up to "Les Tours" and had one of the best off-pist rides
yet, powder! Hard to get down when the snow wasn't present anymore.
We had dropped down in Swizerland, where we ate your baguettes
that we bring everyday. Cissi wasn't in the group today. Small
pitoresque village. There we stood, with your baguettes, about
16 snowboarders, alone at the railway platform. Ride with the
French guys and made jumps and had a relaxed afternon off-pist.
A Brittish came by and jumped once, and then left. He lived in
the "lake-area" in the nothern part of England, somewhere. Took
the pist all the way down, and was home early for the first time
this week, at about 15.30 or so. I and Olof were at the Supermarche
where we bought cookies, and I also bought a bottle of Pastis 51.
Tomorrow is the last day with your guide. The week has been a fast
one.

Feb 16
Karin and Riquet took us up to "Les Grand Montents" two times before
lunch, with very good rides. Had lunch. Went down to the right and
then "Les Grand Montents" with the French men again. Magnus wound has
just been worser and worser for every day, and today, he had to go
to the hospital in Chamonix. Party tonight?
Saw the French girl kiss another guy, not good. Sat and drank some
beers at the Savoy and went to bed at about 01.00.

Feb 17
Went up at 11.00 and had breakfast. Departed Argentiére at 16.00
after some problems with the bus.
