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 :-)

@Snow&skifan, I've just put Puy St Vincent / Écrins / Serre Chevalier live: https://snow.obsession.cam/briancon . One of the cams is a live 360 viewer which I have not seen before, although I had to clear cookies before the 360 viewer would work.

@amh15, this is cool. Going to Obergürgl with Mrs.tsgsh at Easter (30th wedding anniversary) and good to see there's snow at the bottom!

Hmmm you have Sainte Foy listed in Aosta valley - it's in the Tarentaise valley, along with Paradiski, Tignes and Val d'Isere. La Rosiere is also in the Tarentaise but is lift linked to La Thuile, which IS inthe Aosta - maybe your data model needs to allow a resort / camera to be tagged to more than one area?

In adddition, you only show the resport camera for Sainte Foy, there are actually four in total

@nbt, Point taken about Sainte Foy. I felt Tignes-Val d'Isere and Paradiski (Les Arcs-La Plagne) each deserved their own separate camera cluster. Most people spend a holiday visiting, and therefore want to see all the cameras for, one or the other of those, not both. This meant that as a small resort with only 4 cams, I didn't want to put Sainte Foy in a Snow Obsession cluster all on its own (what's the point? all the cams are on one page of the Sainte Foy website anyway). So I knowingly put it in the Aosta cluster with some other somewhat nearby resorts.

I'm not sure if I added the other 3 cameras since your comment, but there are 4 cams for Sainte Foy on there now.

Point also taken about overlapping sets in the data model. This is on my to-do list for the Windows desktop application which shares the data (https://be-there.cam) so that users can choose "just mountains and snow" or "just France" or "just cities" for their desktop wallpaper, without these having to be mutually exclusive groups. A bit of re-engineering required though, and some additional manual/AI tagging of 4600+ cameras.

 Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

By the way, if anyone tried my Be There desktop wallpaper application (https://be-there.cam) and had problems with it quitting unexpectedly, my apologies. I caught a couple of problems where Windows sometimes does things in an unexpected order - so it was rock stable for me and my test users but seemed to quit consistently with an error for some people. I've fixed the problems I know about. There's a new version now, 1.0.1.42, which has almost 2000 new cameras, so it's worth giving it a try. I really love having a live scene from Tignes, Avoriaz or Matterhorn Glacier Paradise as my desktop wallpaper.
