Day #4 Vallee Blanche with Evolution 2

At the base getting ready to ride the 2nd scariest tram in the world So one of my bucket list items has been to ski the Vallee Blance, one if not the most famous runs in the world and today was the day! To start this run you need to take the 2nd scariest cable car in the world up to the top of L'Alguille Du Midi at over 12,600 ft, it's really one heck of a ride and I was happy to be in the middle and see around me.

The upper and lower shells are made out of Grilamid a very light weight material that is said to be stable and have powerful energy transmission.
