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 :-)

Had an awesome ski yesterday over in Champagny. Warm sunshine and great snow on piste. Off piste quite tracked out and crunch.

We did the Le Bois run right down into the village and snowcover was still good all the way down although occasional icy patches.

Fresh snow forecast for the weekend and then due to be sunny again next week too!

Great conditions in La Plagne yesterday...





Colder & cloudier today, but a well-timed break in the weather coincided with Traversee opening, and there was some great snow to be had in the Creux Bozon:

But out there with a friend and his family ( kids etc ) so no can do.

We are there with another family, but we usually ditch the children and do the Le Tete happy hour. On the slopes im the middle aged guy with the blue Salomon jacket and the (very) orange K2's. I will be either shepherding a family group of begginers, or following my teenage boy and girl while trying to look like I really still can keep up with them Embarassed

jeremyd, The only ski school in Champagny is the ESF, our kids have been taught by Olivier in the past and he tried to teach us snowboarding at one stage. His English is reasonable and he is getting on a bit now so will probably appreciate what it is like to be 50.

Hi,

Hope you all have a good week!

Skiied Les Arcs to La Plagne today including the run down to Villaroger in Les Arcs. Snow conditions underfoot still really good although occasional icy patches right down low. Visibility was good this morning but getting poorer this afternoon and it's snowing lightly now.

Loads more forecast for the next few days too so should be a good week . . .
