Poster: A snowHead
|
Got back yesterday following a week when it just did not stop snowing. The manager in the hotel said that it was the best powder he had seen for 8 years. The conditions last Thursday were particularly good.
Unfortunately it has become warmer and already the Pleney side towards the bottom was becoming packed and a bit icy.
Higher up though the snow was good and there is a big base that should keep things going up to Easter.
If you are going out soon and what to know about a particular run or area leave a message here.

jstw, Plenty of snow. So much when I left that the police were stopping cars driving up to the cable car from Morzine if you did not have snow chains on. Wind though has been a problem with many of the lifts closed this weekend. Hopefully when you go the weather will have calmed down and you should have a great week - wish I was there!

Girlfriend over there this week. They had a great off piste day, although a bit foggy. I hope it stays for a while I'm off for Easter.

Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

Roy Hockley, There is a big base of snow so it should still be ok for Easter, certainly above the mid station areas and away from the Pleney side which I think gets too much sun.
Hope you have a good trip.

zzz, Hello mate, welcome to SnowHeads. It's not at all addictive you will discover.
Utah was awesome - even though we didn't get a massive dump. We did have one very nice sunny day with around 6-10" fresh. Lots of very good steep skiing too. Piccies here http://www.snowmediazone.com/the_zone/showgallery.php/ppuser/384/cat/500 more on the way once I get time to upload them.
Be careful out there - I see Avvy risk at 5/5. Not good...
