Sunday, Bluebird day, and also powder day as usual in the pyrenees. Skied in boi-taull. Big valleys with lots of vertical

Zoom to the Pic de Filià...(see the little traces....), this peak is the top of the new planned ski resort from the other valley, now stopped because "crisis", poo-poo....they did some lifts, destroyed the mountain doing pistes and then stopped the works, so no virgin valley but no ski resort. If finally the resort will be real, and they finish it with a connection to Boi will be between the bests ski resorts in the pyrennes and at top alpine level...

Just had two days over in the Saint Lary valley. Piau Engaly was amazing - not a stone in sight, and barely anyone around other than a few school groups, so the off-piste was hardly touched. Saint Lary yesterday - also excellent cover and quiet runs. It is incredible to have such amazing skiing conditions here in the French Pyrenees, and to think that barely any British people even know about the skiing here.

Drove down the mountain at 2am this morning in a blizzard. Central Pyrenees resorts report 10cm plus of new snow overnight with more snow forecast for the next few days. The new snow came down to 600m with 10cm above 1000m.

You know it makes sense.

More snow overnight and today - though poor visibility. Temperatures are set to rise for a couple of days before settling down again.
Its great having the slopes to yourself - god knows why more people dont ski in January.

The snow is coming again!! This weekend could be great,...and then the snowy weather will remain with us, all the next week.
May be we will see a big dump in the eastern pyrenées and also in the south side during the weekend and at the begginign of the week.
But the forecast are saying that after mid week the north side are also hited by northern winds bringing more powdery stuff.

New month has start, and new storms are in the way...vintage year...... the snow fall will start tomorrow midday and finish saturday afternoon, the most affected area will be northern resorts, maybe 30-40cm more... maybe more in the best areas.... maybe I'm dreaming... This weekend Andorra will be my playground.
