This last day will be a day at leisure to enjoy the small ski area of Crevacol, where you can experience some super cool off-piste descents or just take the day to discover the ski slopes in the area.
As an alternative we can decide together to spend the last day doing some more ski-mountaineering, and finish off the trip discovering the Swiss side of Gran San Bernardo Pass.

We will then top it off eating lunch and toasting all together.
