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 :-)

from last nights activities after Rob had gone to bed.... Although it looks impressive the French Foreign legion boys where mullered by the boys and girls of the inside out ski club. We won balance board, arm and leg wrestling, one arm pushups, bar stool limbo and a weird extreme yoga position. completely destroying them Toofy Grin and they ran home with their tails between their legs. Yvonne beat em on the balance board pushups inflicting a lethal blow to their manhoods Laughing

Wow, I checked out the facebook pics, fantastic, its nice to see photos from the snowy mountain tops and see the nice green meadows below that most of us never normaly see. I have skied Tignes/VD twice and have never really looked at photos like that.

Very nice

Its got me interested in having a summer visit. Whats the best way of going about booking a summer trip to Tignes.

Renry, we are working with Mountain Sun who provide the accommodation and airport transfers for our coaching trips to Tignes. Lots of accommodation choices at this time of year, but Mountain Sun are difficult to beat on price.

kitenski, snow depth? Better than last year thanks to the snowfall in early June. If you're planning on coming out, get here soon. As the scorching summer sun gets on the glacier conditions do deteriorate.

All the race clubs are gone and we had about 50 French ski instructors taking exams in groups of 8, was cool to see what they work on. Very sunny today and a bit warmer, up to 6 deg at 3000M and 18 at base but held real well and we got a full session in.

A few photos from today. Probably the best day of our time here on this trip, very quiet on the glacier, the snow stayed nice all morning, blue sky and no wind. The guys even got some Via Ferrata action in the afternoon with rorie. Top marks!

Verdant in the resort


Great snow, no skiers


The snowpark is now open


Getting ready for Via Ferrata

I'm probably very ignorant, but what or where is Via Ferrata? Rock climbing?

Assisted rock climbing would be a good description. There are permanent cables, rungs and things like that attached to the route to assist the climb, and you are attached by a safety harness at all times. Will post some amazing photos of this afternoon's outing shortly.
