This episode from Epic TV follows Julien Herry, Davide Capozzi and Luca Rolli first snowboard decent of the Couloir NE of Col Armand Charlet, a beautiful and steep couloir in the Mont Blanc Massif.

The 50-55˚ couloir was skied for the first time in 1993 by Emmanuel Ballot, and no one is said to have skied it since. This video is a description of the first ever snowboard descent in May 2013.
