Poster: A snowHead

Thinking of short ski trip to the Spanish Pyrenees, e.g. Formigal early next week. Any current reports on snow conditions? My son is a budding freestyler so would spend most of his time in the terrain park, whilst I would piste ski and generally hover nearby....

Have a quick check but fairly sure Formigal closes on Sunday.

Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

Hmm the scheduled closing date of all the Aragonese resorts (and of pretty much every other Pyrenean resort that's still open) is straight after the Easter weekend... Where do you see info that Formigal will close early?
The snow is excellent right now, considering that we're in April; it's snowed a fair bit over the last week, with temperatures currently low... and there may well be more snow to come.

You'll need to Register first of course.

(And the news is just in that tiny Vallter 2000 will actually re-open for the Easter week after having had no choice but to close a couple of weeks ago after the month and a half of sunshine which took its toll on the less affluent, lower altitude ski areas.)

Formigal closing date was on its site and in La République newspaper. It seems strange as on this side of the border the Easter holidays kick in after Friday!

Interesting; needless to say I can't find anything useful whatsoever on their own website, which - in common with pretty much all Pyrenean ski resort websites - takes one back to the '90s in terms of design and function...
