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 :-)

Hi, We have driven from Devon down to Le Grand Bornand for the last few years at half term and are quite happy with the journey, always seem to loose a bit of time getting around Geneva, Google tells me the drive down to Serre Chavelier is about 1.5 hours longer, is it likely to get bad traffic on the last bit of the journey Lyon, Grenoble or getting into the mountains.
When its really warm like last year does the snow still hold up ok, there is a good amount of high slopes but it looks like all the runs up from Briancon are south facing but some of the middle terrain along the valley is north facing. Very cautios after last year showed how important it is to have north facing slopes, I don't mind but the kids really hated the boiler plate / slush combination as this will only be there 3rd trip. The low down north facing slopes between 1500 and 1800 were much better than 2500 south facing ones.
