Glacier Rond to West couloir | Chamonix 2024 (ski mountaineering)

As in 2023 we headed to Chamonix at the end of april/start of may. But this year snow conditions were better and we skied some nice lines😊
For a first day we headed straight to Aiguille du Midi. Skied some super dry and light pow to the Cosmiques refuge. Here we decided to go Glacier Rond and exit through west couloir - no better place for new boots😅
We found some icy parts but most of skiing was good powder and nice weather. We finished a day with classic Vallee Blanche in perfect no visibility conditions.
First day set the level high, more lines in future videos.

Huge respects for simple edit, no music, so we can enjoy the sound of wind and snow. Damn, I miss skiing

2:12 there was a massive crack in the snow, was it glacier, cave or river?

[@anistenic]

Yes, it is a crack - Bergschrund
"A bergschrund is a type of crevasse or crevice that forms where a moving glacier separates from the stagnant ice above it. It is typically found at the head of a glacier, where the ice is moving fastest. Bergschrunds are often quite large and can present significant obstacles to climbers and mountaineers attempting to cross glaciers or ascend peaks." (www.quora.com/What-is-a-bergschrund)
