Chamonix real-time: Friday 12th of March 1999

This last skiing-day was mostly for taking sun and just enjoing.. Some of us really enjoyed skiing but not so seriously like earlier.. At the bottom of this page there are some digitized dia-slices.

View from 3842 meters (Aiguille du Midi). We visited this nice place for the last time for this trip...

Chamonix behind a glacier. A view from Aiguille du Midi.

Lots of people going for off-piste skiing from Aiguille du Midi. When we did the same few days agoe, there weren't much of others.

Markku sun-bathing.. Also from Aiguille du Midi.

Pekka just opened bottle of sparkling wine.. Guess where this photo is from... :)

We. Mont Blanc right behind us covered with clouds and about 1km higher.

Swimming goggles rules in high altitude!

The Bold and Beautiful.. I can see the bold-one but where is that beauty?

This ice-cave goes to Vallee Blache off-piste route from Aiguille du Midi.

Kalle suffering from H.A.H. (High Altitude and Hangover).

Eating worst steak you can ever find from Le Tour. Unfortunately we cannot remember the name of restaurant but its a nice-looking cottage.. Serving steak and french flies for bargain price 50F. Never go there. Obviously cow had natural dead last summer.

Pekka coming back from vomiting after eating that steak-meal. This restaurant on right-side is right next to some old ruins.

Markku having some rest in Le Tour. As you can see, we didn't take any snowboarding pictures with digital camera.. Kinda mistake or not.. But anyhow, we took some pictures and here we go:

Kalle enjoying last day..

Another nice picture from Kalle.. passing by.

Some unnamed participant who can't stay away from the camera.

Lyijytys enjoying every second..

Lyijytys enjoying even more after causing a small avalance toward photographer.

Lyijytys gaining speed for carving.

...and again!

Pekka enjoying perhaps his last alpine-skiing with monoskies.. Nowadays he also snowboard.

As you can see, he is giving all he got!

Look at the face, he is rocking!
