Alpine Ski Mountaineering
Links to further pages on the ski-mountaineering possibilities in the various sub-ranges of the European Alps. However the Haute Route and the Vallee Blanche are not featured here, they are not really suitable subjects for those who are disillusioned with crowded pistes and the skiing circus. Besides, if you search in Google you'll find over 45,000 references
