Bernard
lived in the French Alps from 1981 to 1992, in
a village of 1500 souls called Lans
en Vercors, 1020 metres above sea level,
30 minutes from Grenoble. Its main activities
are adventure tourism and farming. Vercors has
the status of a park, and so is the ideal spot
for cross-country skiing, hiking, mountain biking
and rock climbing. |
| Bernard
concentrated on teaching skiing, and earned
his licence for teaching Nordic skiing. He and
his friends, high-mountain guides, spent their
time in the mountains, and it was with two of
them that he organized the 1992 expedition,
a world first, depicted in the film "Ellesmere
en haut du Monde." He returns regularly
to the Alps, to enjoy the mountains, his friends,
and of course the wine and cheese. |
