Not sure how long you are in Tignes for but it looks like we could get some snow from Monday onwards.

Has there ever been an occasion where too much snow causes problems?

Quite a few particularly in a place like Tignes with no trees, I know a few people who have gone and been confined to aone or two lower runs for most of the week.

Off to Tignes tomorrow, 
Got lesson in afternoon so after a nice and easy run with good snow and not too much ice in the morning for myself and a nervous partner, any recommendations? Were in Val Claret so one near there would be good!
(I did get a few before but it might have changed given the current lack of snow)

Monkfish, keep us posted on conditions at VC if you get the chance. If not a report on return would be nice. Only 5 weeks to go for me and I myself are in VC.
Have a good time and I hope the snow that is predicted for Monday onwards brings nice fresh conditions.

I was there during airwaves last year, it was quite a spectacle!
i remember standing beside the half pipe one night watching, it must've been -20, but it was well worth it!

FAQ
The Leisse has been widended to accomodate more skiers and is being pisted daily. It is worth considering riding back down the funicular as Double M is a nightmare 
The only people who seem to be happy with Double M are the ambulance crews 
)
Get ready guys tomorrow we are up the mountain
Good new overnight snow and a little sunshine helped progress. The hot chocolate & Vin Chauds also helped.
