Ulf took this photo during the European cup in Verbier and it ended up in Powder magazine, so it must be from the season 79

Ulf looked in his archive and found some B/W from the 70s Verbier profiles, Marcus Bratter, Kevin and Marko Shapiro

General view of Val de Bagnes. Postcard to Amelie Filliez (Philippe May’s Grandmother) I think the year may be from 1927
