Poster: A snowHead

i am looking at booking a snowboarding holiday in Risoul, France in mid March but i'm a bit concerned about snow levels etc. Will there be enough snow in mid march or would i be better off picking a different resort? Any other info on Risoul would be much appreciated
Cheers

Howdie Lucke, Risoul is a high resort so you shouldn't have a problem. if there's only a small number in your party you may be better booking nearer the time so you can check snow levels and also grab a bargain. There is always plenty to be had at that time of year. good luck im off to Morzine tomorrow TRA.
snow sunday Whooohoo!!!!!

From the piste map and the link with Vars, I was expecting it to be a a big, interesting area, but I ended up getting bored quite quickly. Added to that the grooming was dire, with big chunks of ice bricks in the middle of the piste! . In better snow conditions it looked like there could be a lot of easy off-piste, but unfortunately we didn't have them.
That said we were there in early January and we were told that it gets a lot of snow late in the season with lows moving up from the Med. I am sure you will have a blast!!

I went a few years ago in March time and had a blast. There were a number of tree runs plenty of easily accesible off-piste a nice back bowl on the way to Vars. Nightlife was a bit limited but I thought the slopes themselves were pretty sweet.
Will there be enough snow - who knows all you can do is look at what there currently is and make a judgement on that.

- Yeah it is. That was on a rare non-snowboarding related trip to Slovakia. It also involved AK's and full on machine guns!!
