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 :-)

High altitude ski resorts can look pretty stark at this time of year before the bulldozed runs and varied detritus is covered by snow. Can anyone find a more desolate outlook than this one

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

Didn't there used to be a glacier there?

Even some of the lower bits here are pretty grim. Cretes (2100m) is pretty awful, even more so this year because of the amount of work building a new lift. The Demoiselles which is a green run in winter is carrying dozens and dozens of huge earth movers going up and down creating huge dust clouds.
Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

I believe that a glacier requires a certain depth of snow and ice which builds up over a number of years. Looking at that webcam you can see the glacier up to the right but the area mostly in view is certainly not glacier and would probably not even qualify as a snow field since it's clearly not permanent.
