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 :-)

We used to call it Villard Wreck Yer Ass due to that drag lift you used to take to get over to AdH.

We ski from Vaujany, and no-one there has a good thing to say about the idea - but I don't think it would be practical for us to use - probably quicker to drive most of the time, and a full day's skiing to be had rather than a couple of hours using this. What do the Alpe d'Huez and Auris users think (and Oz, and Villard Reculas)? And what about the locals?

Smells like a vanity project to me.

Don't know if this is the right place to ask, but. Does anyone know if it will still be possible to do the short helicopter transfers between Alpe D'Huez and Les Deux Alpes this winter? Smile

Had a wonder up at the weekend. Looks good from about 2000m up.

Snow warnings for today always gets me excited!


CHUTES DE NEIGE LOCALEMENT ABONDANTES EN MONTAGNE :
En montagne, les chutes de neige s'annonce très hétérogènes. La frontière italienne et l'extrême Sud de la région seront particulièrement touchés tandis que d'autres secteurs pourront rester au sec. On attend ainsi pour cette journée de jeudi :
- 30 à 40 cm de neige sur l'Oisans, la Haute-Maurienne localement 50 cm, ces mêmes valeurs seront observées sur le Vercors mais dès 1100/1300 mètres.
- 25 à 35 cm de neige en Sud-Maurienne (Thabor, Galibier ...) et Grandes-Rousses au-dessus de 1700 mètres. Ces mêmes valeurs seront observées en Chartreuse dès 1100/1200 mètres.
- 15 à 25 cm de neige en extrême Sud de la Haute-Tarentaise.

Skied today which was not too bad considering the rain yesterday.
Snow from 2100 up was good. Signal and Marcel's farm decent enough.

Nice to get the first winter ski done with it being the 24th November an added bonus.

Paperwork ditched for the morning to get up the mountain and enjoy the conditions.

Blue sky day with super snow and very quiet pistes. Still the odd rock off piste but things looking great so far.

As others have mentioned more snow due next week.

Should be super in resort today. Looks like it snowed most of yesterday, even down to Bourg at 720m

Been a great start to the season so far. Auris and Villard open on Saturday.

More snow this afternoon and tonight. Then the big snow storm on Friday. Hopefully Saturday's snow/rain level drops a little.

One of the best starts to the season since I moved here in 2012.

As predicted the bad weather has arrived. The snow level slowly coming down as I've watched from the ski pass office. Down to between 1600 and 1700 m.

Interesting to see what the next few days bring.
