Aosta Ambassador, TV presenter and former Olympic skier, Graham Bell, skiied from the top of the Monte Rosa on the Summer Solstice, June 21. After a helicopter ride to the top, Graham accompanied by local Aosta guides managed a run of 1,200 vertical metres, more than many resorts boast mid-winter. Despite temperatures of 25 degrees below zero Graham reports recent snowfall and the summer sun made it well worth the effort.
