Episode 12 - Talking Tignes with Simon Perry, author of the complete off piste guide to the French resort of Tignes. Simon tells us how breaking a leg led to him writing a program to converted his GPS files. Years of keeping a digital record whilst exploring the valley, was almost instantaneously turned into a very useable guidebook.

For those not familiar with Tignes, it covers a huge area - and when joined with the neighbouring linked resort of Val d’Isere it makes up some 10,000 hectares, containing 300km of groomed pistes alongside miles of off piste routes.

Tignes Hors Piste contains 275 routes for all off-piste abilities, ranging from short descents between the pistes, through to multi-day backcountry missions. 432 loaded pages contain a wealth of local information and adventures, with excellent topos, routes images and descriptions in both French and English.

All of the publisher's profits go to SOLEA – a local Tignes charity which supports cancer research.
