This Impressive Valley Glacier Becomes the Perfect Playground for Free Skier Sam Favret
Peep this gnarly part from the full-length film ‘Backyards Project.’
Yesterday, PVC Company finally released the full length version of its Backyards Project film in which freeskier Sam Favret explores his backyard in Chamonix — a winter wonderland that sits on the borders of France, Switzerland and Italy. As a descendent of three generations of high-altitude mountain guides, Favret follows in the steps of his family however he’s not walking or hiking, but instead skis, snowboards, surfboards and skateboards are his preferred mode of transportation through the Alps. Before paying the justified $2.99 USD to watch all 46 hair-raising minutes of Backyards Project, check out this beautiful part above, where Favret freeskis through the mythical Mer de Glace — a valley glacier — as if it’s a skate park in California.
