ATTENTION THIS TRACK IS FOR EXPERIENCED MOUNTAIN RIDERS ONLY!!! MOUNTAIN PILOTS ONLY!!!!
The Broulé glacier is an excellent landing, presenting a slight slope around 10,000 feet, which ends (on landing) gradually increasing the slope (useful for losing speed).
At take-off it has a steep descent (unsuitable for landing) which easily allows you to leave the ground even if the snow is particularly "heavy".
It can be reached from Aosta by going up the Valpelline until passing the dam that forms Lake Place Moulin.
You climb up to 10,500 ft, climbing up the entire Valpelline until you turn near the Aosta Refuge, under the Tete Blanche, then descend on the opposite side maintaining 10,200 ft and turn, skimming the face of the Gran Vanna.
Skirt the walls that border the amphitheater and then line up for landing.
If there are no traces on the ground it is not easy to identify the point of impact.
By maintaining an altitude between 10,050 and 10,200 ft, however, you are sure to land either on the large slight slope (slope of 3/5%), or on the next slope (slope greater than 20%).
Whether you start from a slight slope or from a higher position, there will be no problems with take-off.
Be careful NOT to reach the top of the slope. The glacier immediately ends in a "hole", there is no flat space.
The Broulé glacier is bordered by rock walls that enclose it in a horseshoe shape, so it is very challenging to fly over it at low altitude to check the snow conditions.
Once the landing procedure has begun, you must land.
As always, but here more than in other places, it is necessary to ask expert pilots in the area for information on whether or not it is possible to land.
