Poster: A snowHead
|
Thinking of Tignes or San Cassiano for this weekend - ski Friday to Monday or Tuesday - down to conditions and pistes/lifts being open.
Think Tignes has just had plenty of snow so hopefully most pistes and lifts will be open by Friday.
Dolomites less so but they have the best snow making facilities around, it's cold so the pistes will be great and unless it's windy the Sella Ronda will be open.
Any advice much appreciated

Please don't say anything negative about Tignes now since I have just booked it! This is because only 3 nights available in San Cassiano, and 5 in Tignes, flights are really cheap too.
Which is nice.

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

Looks as good a choice at anywhere right now.
Also seems you're on for a great early season weekend, hope you enjoy it. Very envious

@simonx, Being out in Tignes I can tell you there is plenty of snow but due to the storms many lifts weren’t open but many more have opened today and others opening tomorrow, so you should be fine on Friday. You won’t suffer from lack of snow and they’ve even announced opening the gondolas from Boisses and Brevieres at the weekend.

Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

A hefty storm just passed by Tignes, bringing 30 or so cm of snow with it in one day, covering the entire mountain. It might be the best time to surf here, as there aren't many people yet (most of the arivals are planned for the 22nd).
Weather seem favorable for next week with the exception of sunday, when it may rain, but no wind.
And as geepee mentioned above, new lifts are opening up every passing day.
