ski sauvage - the ghost resorts - Super Saint-Bernard - february 6th and 7th
On February 6th and 7th, to celebrate the release of the latest installment of the documentary series the ghost resorts, blackcrows invites you to experience a super ghostly adventure.
In Super Saint-Bernard, in the Swiss Valais, hospitality has given way to silence, and the wind now sweeps over cables freed from their cabins. Twelve wild skiers, accompanied by the crows Camille Jaccoux and Liv Sansoz, will bring back joyful memories and honor the legacy of this small ski area nestled deep in the Val d’ Entremont, on the border between Switzerland and Italy.
On February 6th, fans of ghostly tales can enjoy a screening of the ghost resorts films, a tasting of local specialties, and an overnight stay at the Bivouac Napoléon. The following day, guided by the crows, they’ll explore the valleys of Super Saint-Bernard on touring skis, reveling in the peace and beauty of these mountains, now returned to the wild.
Registration for this event includes half-board accommodation from February 6th to 7th, blackcrows ski test, supervision by two mountain guides for February 7th… and plenty of pleasure.

> screening of the ghost resorts films
From the Canadian Rockies to the Japanese Alps, through New Mexico and the European Alps, the ghost resorts series delves into the fate of ski resorts turned ghost towns.
"For blackcrows, the ghost resorts is an exploration of ski culture, a legacy, a golden age, and these places where life once thrived, which have since closed but where skiing endures." – Camille Jaccoux
For fans of ghost stories, we invite you to discover or revisit the four episodes of this literally historic series. The screening will be followed by a discussion with the key figures of Chapter 4: Camille Jaccoux, Claude Lattion, Liv Sansoz, Jules Guarneri, and Julien Rosserens.
> freebird skis, the choice of pleasure
The spirit of ski touring is freedom. Freedom to move across any terrain—whether uphill, flat, or downhill. That’s why our freebird skis are designed with a focus on skiability. Lightweight for the ascent and efficient on the descent, they are, quite simply, skis made for skiing.
Adventurous, passionate, and lightweight, take this day to discover one of the seven skis in our Freebird range.
> catering and accommodation
For this cultural and historical getaway, we’ll settle in at the Bivouac Napoléon, a charming hotel located in Bourg-Saint-Pierre, along the road to the Grand St. Bernard Pass. There, Martine, Claude, and the wonderful team at Bivouac Napoléon will welcome us with warmth for a cheerful evening, a restful night, and a super breakfast.
