08-11-2009, Col du Sabot.

A huge snowfall very early in the season, more than 50cm at this spot Le Col du Sabot, France.
Normally we can't go snowkiting early november. It's only 1.900m altitude.
Well, for this session, the spot is south so we had to hike two hours and half to get to the top and find the North wind blowing.
Not super fine weather, lot of fog, but some sunshine parts in the afternoon, before the next snowfall !!!

A few days later, the warm South wind blew during more than ten days so all the super powder snow is gone.
We managed to come back but the landscape was completely different.
The South wind is a lot better for this spot as we don't need to hike.
And the road was easy to drive as well, no more snow up there.
