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 :-)

Just packing for Sunday Little Angel

Does anyone think it is going to be very cold next week ? GFS model on page 1 here seems to indicate that, getting slightly warmer then more snow over Christmas.

Another fantastic day in the espace killy snowHead snowHead
I'm just recovering (hot bath, foot massage, stretching) and preparing for the apres wink

I have to confess I don't remember conditions being this good for many a year Very Happy Very Happy Very Happy

I skied with friends today who had hired powder skis to fully enjoy the snow conditions. We skied down to La Daille, went up the Borsat Express, around the Grand Pre area, and enjoyed it so much we went round again Very Happy Very Happy Finished up by skiing down Cretes, Combe Folle, and Trolles. By this time my feet were killing me (new ski boots rolling eyes ) I'm sure they'll be fine once I get them bedded in Madeye-Smiley

Very Happy

Seriously, what we loved most about La Tania was that we could sit outside Pub Le Ski Lodge and have a brew while still keeping any eye on the kids hurtling up and down the bunny slope.

j2ski has the most random forecasts. Yesterday it had 20 cms over sat/sun.

Snow-forecast 6 day has <10 cm forecast for tuesday night. Although that's so far away it'll change.

Yep!


Today was sunny & warm IF out of the wind, which is very strong on the exposed slopes. The piste snow is in near perfect condition, so it looks like a Merry Xmas out here. Laughing

Just back from Tignes, they've got plenty!!! far end of Val up above Foret is very wind blown in places. Off piste is crusty most places. Its been very well used all round considering its so early in the season.

PS: St Foy has even more & apparently is little used Wink

Yeah they have, should be opening fairly soon I think. Big ol' refurbishments going on in there.

Off piste is pretty awful everywhere. Ice and wind crusts on 90% of faces.
