Obviously A snowHead isn't a real person

I've just asked a couple of the locals on FB if they know anything. I'll report back. It would be superb if it were to happen.
I would have thought a station, with a big car park, down near the barrage or somewhere just off the main road would have been sensible. It would enable access to either side without having to drive up the mountain.

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

Claude B, I could see the point of it if there was a carpark at the bottom

Arno, Would be an expensive white elephant IMHO if it ever happened which I doubt. Auris is a terrible staging point due to its unreliable snow cover early & late season.

Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

I haven't seen anything more reliable about this - Perhaps Davidof may have heard more? I would have thought such a decision would have created a fanfare we would all hear? The last I saw it was in abeyance, This blog has some stuff about it: http://atla.over-blog.com/article-petition-contre-l-extension-de-l-alpe-d-huez-120656840.html
Interesting to read in there the mooted idea of a link between ADH and St Sorlin (les sybelles). Not heard of this one before, in some ways makes more sense! I notice Alpedhueznet completely ignore the existance of les sybelles (310 kms) in their top 5 list.

andyrew, Was going to say the St Sorlin link would be far more interesting but it goes through a National Park over the Col de Couard so a no-no apparently but would make a fantastic linked domain.

andyrew, hard to link to Les Sybelles without going through some wild and fairly pristine landscape

You'll get to see more forums and be part of the best ski club on the net.

easiski hasn't heard anything apart from the previous rumours. However there is a presentation in resort tonight so if there is anything it will come out. She doesn't want it either.

FAQ
and a nice day out but I cannot think why, or how, anyone would finance it. Alpe d'Huez, or Huez commune, is already seriously in debt as I understand it so it's not going to come from there. SATA, that operate Alpe d'Huez lifts, (and 50% owned by the town anyway) have got enough to do unless this is some sort of reaction to Oz / Vaujany taking their toys (sorry lifts
