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 :-)

So the S-i-L reports that work has begun on replacing the aging (1983) bubble from Champoluc to Crest, long overdue.
Increased capacity from 1,800 p/h to 2,400 p/h, mainly due I suspect to increased cabins from 6 to 8.
If my Italian translation is adequate, running more or less from the existing base station which will be modernised to a new top station which will be adjacent to the Crest-Ostafa link. A bit of remodelling at the top, adding another kiddy carpet up to the Cré Forné hotel (which provided a splendid lunch a few weeks ago so that's definitely No Bad Thing.)
Due to be back in service for 2018/19 season start - fingers crossed!
