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 :-)

Around 1:30 a pisteur came out and rubbed offf 'glacier ferme' off a sign right in front of me, so I guess it opened in the afternoon. Not snowing over here (yet!)

Cheers for the Gilet!

Interesting that they should run them in advance of a big dump. What do you think the thinking behind this is, does it provide protection for the underlying snow from rain, the new snow adhere better when it falls, or is it just on auto?

Has la plagne been closed at all with all this crazy snow? We're flying into grenoble tomorrow and going to la plagne, do you know if the busses have trouble when it snows that much? I'm starting to get worried now!

sorry for all the questions but I'm not sure if we should be worried or expecting the most amazing week of snow?!

Thanks in advance Smile

redrunmarcus, did you get my PM re gillet.

Mouth, ntfarmer, Boredsurfing, I am on the mend now so hope to catch up with you all soon. Yes you will need chains or water wings, it cannot make its mind up weather to rain or snow. But i did have 15cm plus of the white stuff this morning on the grass down the valley and it is still there tonight as it is starting to get colder again. Puzzled

Great conditions today - the snow is fantastic. Been cloudy all day with no action so very annoying and caused a bit of flat light lets hope for some more snow tonite. Went down the back side of champagny - mont de la guerre but not the most stable face in la plagne. Then came back from the top of the second headed towards the coqs and went left threw the trees all the way down to montalbert village which was mega - in fact better snow than the back of champagny.

cockofthenorth, Do you know the route down from the top of the Bijolin lift towards Les Cloches that goes into the gully with the little watefalls all the way through the forest. If you do, do you have any idea what the snow cover is like over there now. Can be really fun with good snow cover. snowHead

snowcrazy, sorry I haven't replied sooner, we have 10 lads in the moment so full on with early doors making dinner etc etc. I remember last year I think I ended up doing that run as the previous year I skinned up to the top of the saint jaques and skiied round to the bottom of La Roche chair lift, so I attempted to do the same from the Bijolin but I ended up back in Montchavin !!!. I did the run with redrunmarcus, actually. It was a good run and remember doin it early march i think, I was over that way today and had a look and I would say that the snow to the bottom would be fine, but I would think that it would be well tracked by now. From what I can remember you keep to the right and end up at the bottom of the trees and you follow the walking trail signs to montchavin les coches. Hope that is of some help!
