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 :-)

With the very hot summer that they've had the glacier at the top of Les Deux Alpes used for summer skiing is looking in a very sorry state.
Apparently a few days ago the lake formed by glacier melt water that fed the new snow cannons on the glacier, keeping it skiable all summer, burst out from its melting snow "dam" and drained away completely in two hours, causing a considerable mud slide downstream.

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

Climate change in action. Within our lifetimes we have witnessed the development of glacier skiing and probably soon the end of summer skiing
