 Poster: A snowHead
|
|
Temps are dropping, but it's been dry. Wolf Creek is open (they got a 2-3' storm last week). Others are calling out 8 Nov. Peaks are dusted, but it'll all be made snow for a while. Ski teams will start training at Copper next week, and it is scheduled to open to the public on the 8th, but right now it's just a beautiful autumn!

Obviously A snowHead isn't a real person

I'm checking the La Masse webcam pretty much every hour. In 3V from the 14th-20th of December and the lack of snow is starting to spook me! There's an archive on the webcam that shows a base of snow on the mountain from late October going back to 2021...! TBH I'm only anxious about it because I've organised the trip and chose the dates based on Baby FWNS being due in the new year.
Sorry if I've jinxed the whole northern alps with my hubris.

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

fallingwithnostyle, back in 2011 I was planning to bring my 20 yr old son out to La Plagne the week before Christmas.
At the start of December there was no snow on anywhere.
With little likelihood of skiing, I was going to suggest to him that there was not point in him coming along.
Then on December 5th it started to snow. And snow. And it just didn't stop. It turned into a superb season.
Have faith.

Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

I'm semi kidding ( probably about 60:40) failing any snow I'm sure Gloucester Dry slope will be a suitable substitute
