Helbronner with the Tahoe Puppies and Dave

The tahoe boys showed up last night, and I was able to track down Jason by seeing him at the Cafe when I was on the bus, so we jumped off and built a plan to go ski off the Midi today with Jason, Eric and Dave. These guys are in town for about 2 weeks, and I am really stoked to show them around a bit. Here is a photo of the crew kicking it on the Midi bridge that Rylan, Clive and I rapped off last week. They were pretty stoked to see this in real life....
Here is a photo of Eric Bryant, aka Boy Wonder trying to look not scared to impress Rylan and I. We are his senseis, he cant show us fear!
Here is Jason looking disturbed by all the people. chaos and exposure of heading down the Midi arete to the Vallee Blanche, its pretty darn exposed!
We took these boys on the same tour that I did last week with Alex, Rylan and Clive, mainly because it is so cool for us Americans so ski in two countries on one day....So here is another photo of heading down the metal staircases into Italy. This one is of Jason.
Jason and Eric are a photo shooting allstar team, here is Eric skying over Jason for his first Italian send. Nice one buddy!

After skiing down to the Helbronner cable car mid station, we made the standard awesome french lunch of baguette, cheese, and sausage from the saturday market, and hustled back to Montenvers down the Vallee Blanche to make sure we got the last train back to Cham. We made it by 12 minutes. whew.
