SRD on the Haute Route!















SRD's Barry Levinson, his 21 year old son Stefan and several freinds completed the famed Haute Route ski tour this past March. The Haute Route is a 6 day alpine tour that crosses the Alps from Chamonix France to Zermatt Switzerland a length of around 120 miles with nearly 25,000+ feet of climbing.

The trip was led by famed Swiss guide Martin Volken from Pro Guiding Service in Seattle and K2's Mike Hattrup, star of the Blizzard of Ahhhs and License to Thrill as well as the more recent Edge of Never ski films.

Before the tour our group spent 3 days skiing in Chamonix and Courmayeur Italy with another legendary guide, Stephane "Fan Fan" Dan.

Pictured above at the top of the final Col with the Matterhorn in view is our group from L to R: Stefan and Barry Levinson, Mike Hattrup, Jon Goss, Martin Volken, Mike Folwell and Peter Adamco.

If you ever get the opportunity, as a skier this tour is a must! Here is a link to some pictures.
