SCUK (Snowboard Club UK) reported that on Tuesday 7 February a fire consumed Cybar, Dick's T-Bar and the Bar du Moulin in Chamonix. Fortunately, it appears tht no-one was hurt. A bit spooky, seeing as we were there only a couple of weeks before.

More reports are available from Chamonet.com and Natives.co.uk.

I've now got the first lot of photos from our recent snowboarding trip to Chamonix. These are all taken with my Minolta G400 - I'm still working on the Nikon photos from the Aguille du Midi, so watch this space.
