Then come with me for one or several days of guided off piste skiing in the great powder spots of the area. It includes Le Brévent and La Flégère above the town of Chamonix!
I like very much going with my friends and clients freeride skiing there. It is less crowded than some other places of the region. In addition, off piste skiing is about the freedom of skiing in wild places starting from the top of the ski lifts. You’ll love it!
The ski runs are incredible and the views just amazing, facing Mont Blanc. The bowls of that area allow some of the best freeride skiing terrains that the french Alps have to offer.
The Brevent Ridge and la Flégère Bowl are my two favorite runs. One is accessible through the Brevent cable car. The other, via the Index chair lift.
However, there are many other different off piste options for all levels of freeride skiers. From beginners as well as very experimented off piste addicted looking for steep couloirs, half pipes and drops.
I will take maximum 6 persons with me. This will be defined based on program, the itinerary and the ski level of the participants of the group.
I can bring you skiing in Le Brévent and La Flégère for one day, a weekend or a full week combining with some other awesome freeride skiing spots around Chamonix. Among them, you can find Les Grands Montets, La Vallée Blanche and the Balme domain (Vallorcine and le Tour).
We can also mix some off piste skiing days with backcountry skiing itineraries in the area of Chamonix. Le Col de Berard, la Breche Berard and Le Glacier Mort are perfect places for that.
My daily guiding fee is 400€. Feel free to get in touch with me if you want to experience off the beaten ski tracks in Le Brévent and La Flégère. As a local guide, I’ll be very happy to show you around and let you live a great time in these amazing landscapes.
I grew up far from the mountains, and I didn't imagine what was waiting for me...
When I was 17, I had the first symptoms: I left without second guessing it my foreign tongues studies and I settled at Briançon, in the Hautes-Alpes, to satiate my passion for snowboarding. I practiced non-stop for some winters, spending the "summers" in the southern hemisphere.
The virus started spreading: my love for large spaces led me to get certified as a mountain leader.
During 10 years, I spent my summers taking groups to discover the most beautiful hikes around the Ecrins massif.
During this time, I discovered alpinism and a there was a new spark in my eyes. The diagnostic came fast: I was severely passionate about the mountains. Since then I never stopped dreaming of every kind of ascent, and I organised my everyday life to try to achieve many of them.
I learned to appreciate equally the end of the mountain journey and the friend or rope parter with whom I share my trips. After 10 years going through paths with hiking groups and with a fierce desire to go higher, I started studying to become a High Mountain Guide. I became IFMGA-certified in August, 2017.
Today I propose to travel this path, leading us sometimes to a summit, to admire the vastness of the horizon, taking us to something simple, pure and essential.
My head is filled with memories and projects, and I would be thrilled to share one with you. But I'm also here to help you turn your own project into a reality.

Julia was great! She let me explore myself and challenged me at the same time. She helped me to develop my mountaineering skills at my level. She respected my wishes and selected the best projects. I really enjoyed 3 days of mountaineering with Julia 👍.

In order to offer an experience of what can be done in the Alps in winter, Julia proposed a mixed package that allowed us to vary all sports. We started with a great ice climbing experience in Combes, Italy. Amazing decor, lots of snow, just enough ice. Dark blue sky in combination with ice blue cascade made it all very special. Next day up “Skyway” to do the ski descent of the Toula Glacier, a 2000 meter ski descent. Good conditions considering the amount of snow that fell throughout the winter. Later that afternoon, a 2 hrs ski walk from the Lavachey Valley up to the Refuge Bonatti, open this time of year. After a great Italian meal, alone in the whole refuge, the next day we took off for an exceptional ski rando up to Col de Malatra. The mountain was ours, fresh tracks up and down, a perfect day for powder enthusiasts. All of this thanks to Julia who again has shown great ability to listen to our needs and allowed us to securely discover new areas in respect to the local weather conditions.

Ski Touring in the Hautes Alpes or how our guide Julia transformed an intro course into an addictive passion. Although I´m passionate about alpine skiing, I had never practiced ski touring. I discovered this discipline along with my two brothers last weekend. Our guide´s knowledge, thoughtfulness and passion for the mountains very quickly transformed these 2 days into a unique and intense experience. If you add the amazing views and the hospitality at the hut to the combo, there´s only one thing left to wish for: to go back as soon as possible!

We thought Julia was wonderful. Supportive, fun, and knew all the right places to take us despite the weather and being later in the day. We would use Julia again when we have the opportunity to come back and do our dream tour, Vallee Blanche

Ces 2 jours en peaux de phoque avec Julia ont été fantastiques. Julia est pédagogue, patiente, à l'écoute de vos envies et souriante. Malgré les conditions de neige peu favorables (mais un grand ciel bleu), elle a pris le temps pour me donner des conseils techniques pour les conversions et m’a formée pour la recherche en avalanche avec un DVA. Une super expérience et une belle rencontre humaine pour commencer cette année 2017. Je recommande vivement Julia !

Ce voyage était une formidable expérience. C'était la première fois que je faisais de l'alpinisme et tous s'est bien passé. C'était parfaitement adapté à notre niveau. Et puis le guide était génial. C'était super de faire ça entre père et fils sans les mamans. Ca donnait au voyage une ambiance particulière. :-)

Ce périple de 4 jours où l'on était 4 paires de pères et fils a été juste magnifique ! Cette ascension de l'Aiguille du Tour a permis de nous réunir et de nous souder encore plus. Parfois on a du subir les grognements des autres participants mais bon, cela fait partie du jeu. Enfin, si une telle expérience était à refaire, je le ferais les yeux fermés.

I lived a fabulous mountaineering experience together with my guide Julia and 13 years old godson. It was the first time I walked with crampons on a glacier at the bottom of Aiguille du Tour. I didn’t expect this great feeling of meditating while walking surrounded by amazing views. Thank you so much Julia for your kindness and professionalism, highly appreciated! And thank you Expore-Share.com for putting us together! Guillaume

Nous avons tous vécu une formidable expérience lors de notre montée au sommet de l'Aiguille du Tour. L'ambiance et l'entraide entre père et fils nous a permis d'atteindre le sommet. Ce voyage nous a permis de découvrir l'alpinisme car aucun des fils n'en avait encore fait. Le lever de soleil sur les Alpes est juste fantastique, c'est un souvenir inoubliable. Le beau temps nous a permis d'observer les sommets les plus connus des Alpes. Ce voyage fut inoubliable et j'espère encore pouvoir en faire pendant les années à venir.

Ces 3 jours de ski de rando avec Julia dans le massif du Mont Blanc ont été formidables. Avec une météo favorable nous avons pu faire 2 journées de rando glaciaire versant Mont Blanc et une randonnée versant Aiguilles Rouges, 100% en ligne avec mes souhaits initialement partagés avec Julia. Une boucle, le premier jour au départ des Grands Montets, avec traversée du glacier d'Argentière, remontée du glacier du Chardonnet jusqu'au col, puis descente en rappel pour se poser sur le glacier de Saleina, et retour par le glacier du Tour après avoir franchi la Fenêtre du Tour. Pour le 2ème jour objectif Col du Belvédère dans des conditions délicates en raison du vent et d'une neige non décaillée. Retour vers les glaciers jour 3 avec départ de l'Aiguille du Midi, descente partielle glacier du Géant, puis montée vers la Pointe Helbronner, et retour par la Vallée Noire, puis vallée Blanche. Ces 3 jours ont été l'occasion de faire de nombreuses manipulations en raison du profil varié du terrain. J'ai beaucoup apprécié le professionnalisme et l'implication de Julia, sa démarche sécuritaire pointue. Sa disposition naturelle à échanger, partager et conseiller reste un plus majeur, tout en arborant un sourire constant très rassurant dans un univers imposant. Je garde un souvenir fantastique de ces jours de ski de randonnée et Julia y est pour beaucoup.
