After a five year battle the Swiss side of the Portes du Soleil have signed a deal with ecologists. The ski area intends to invest CHF 100 million to 2024. The deal will see pistes removed, an upgrade of ski lifts, more snow making and protection for wetlands. Great to see the area taking pro-active measures and here's hoping more and more businesses and resorts ( come on Morzine ) get their heads into the big environmental question.
Shooting the breeze about the ski industry, the great outdoors and general gossip from the Doorstep Skis HQ in Morzine, France.
