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 :-)

Snow Report: Montalbert La Plagne 2008/2009

 Poster: A snowHead
Poster: A snowHead
'Firm' but chalky conditions in the Canadiens today, soft stuff to be had on the open slopes below the couloir proper, but the wind seems to have done a bit of work in the last week or so + seems like there has been a bit of 'cooking' in the last few days (same reports coming in from elsewhere..).





Spot the snowhead:






Pretty busy on the lifts - particularly Crozats & Inversens this morning (mind you thats where the sunshine was...)... but very quite otherwise..saw 4 bods coming out of Cairn but other than that we had the face to ourselves..!!

cockofthenorth, I know where you went, but I will not tell anyone. Must have taken quite a while to walk up, I went up there last year when I was guiding over in your patch, took ages with snowshoes. I guess you were all on skins. Did you go right to the top. The snow must have been great. Wish I could have joined you, but not with my sore knee this season. Got any pics of the trip down that you want to share.

Still hope to see you on Bellcote before the season is over. Look's like I will not ski with redm this season as he is off home before I get back from Switzerland. Hope you get the chance to take him down bellcote, he really wants to do it.
