Log in to snowHeads to make it MUCH better!
Registration's totally free, of course, and makes snowHeads easier to use and to understand, gives better searching, filtering etc. as well as access to 'members only' forums, discounts and deals that U don't even know exist as a 'guest' user. (btw. 50,000+ snowHeads already know all this, making snowHeads the biggest, most active community of snow-heads in the UK, so you'll be in good company)..... When you register, you get our free weekly(-ish) snow report by email. It's rather good and not made up by tourist offices (or people that love the tourist office and want to marry it either)... We don't share your email address with anyone and we never send out any of those cheesy 'message from our partners' emails either. Anyway, snowHeads really is MUCH better when you're logged in - not least because you get to post your own messages complaining about things that annoy you like perhaps this banner which, incidentally, disappears when you log in :-)

Hi,
Planning a short trip to French Alps next week. Where will I find best skiing conditions Samoens or Tignes (would stay in Brevieres).
Keen on Samoens with short transfer for Geneva but worried the last good dump of snow is getting worn out. Would Tignes be any better or is it the same wherever you go?
Thanks for your thoughts on this

Tignes by a country mile.

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

Tignes by a country mile, as the man says..... Unless there's a good dump fairly shortly there'll not be a lot in Samoens!

As others have said, bite the bullet and make the longer transfer to Tignes. Samoens from my experience suffers from a few pinch points and if some sectors or lifts are closed it'll only exacerbate matters.
Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

Just got back from Samoens (Flaine/Morillion/Les Carroz/Sixt) last night - the skiing/snow has been really good this week but not sure what the apparent rise in temperature will do to the pistes in that area this weekend.

As I will be writing shortly in the Tignes snow report, we have enough snow up here, the pistes were hard today but that is down to daily conditions. There are one or two well marked bare patches, hopefully these will be covered by the expected snow over the next week.
