NEW WOMEN'S SKI RECORD FOR MONT BLANC

On Wednesday, 5th June, SCOTT athlete Anna DeMonte, from Utah, became the fastest woman to summit Mont Blanc on skis. Anna, 30, set the women's FKT (Fastest Known Time) on Mont Blanc's Grand Mulets route in a total of 7 hours 29 mins, running up and then skiing down.

"I started at 4:45am and finally reached the summit at 10:34am. Nearly six hours later," says Anna, who set the record FKT using a combination of in-line and prototype skis and running shoes from SCOTT, "The downhill was a dream. Some fresh powder on the north face of Mont Blanc followed by super firm and fast conditions all the way down to 2000m.”
