Local News
Eagles
A pair of eagles has taken up residence in the cliff near the Lavancher couloir. To respect the incubation period, a temporary protection zone has been established in the Danaïdes off-piste area, starting from Solaise and heading towards Laisinant. Any presence or noise in this zone could cause the nest to be abandoned and jeopardize the survival of the egg. Therefore, it is advised to keep to the right or left when descending at the entrance to the Lavancher couloir.

Seventy-three senior citizens enjoyed a delicious and convivial meal yesterday at lunchtime at La Savoyarde restaurant, in the presence of about twenty elected officials, including Mayor Xavier Mattis and the Mayor of Bourg-Saint-Maurice, Cécile Utille Grand, as well as caregivers. It was an opportunity for them to get together at the end of the season and share a pleasant meal.
