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 :-)

Fantastic conditions on the vallee blanche today deep deep powder first thing but tracked out very quickly !
However a skin for us up to the Col Flambeau/Col du Toule after a rather tricky Glacier traverse proved well worth it with some excellent untracked powder in the vallee Noire (Toule Glacier) down into Italy after a rather tricky roped up entry,and the dreaded stair case decent .Lower down was a little wet and heavy though.
The Itailian Varient of the Vallee blanche entry La Combe de la Vierge still had some good untracked snow later in the afternoon but after this short section from the top the Classic Vallee Blanche was tracked to pieces .




Vallee Noire today 18/03/08

A brilliant day yesterday and GUTTED to leave today - ah well. It will be quite a welcome for our guests.

Peered out of the window at 6 am and didn't see anything, all still grassy in the garden...but at 7 it was coming down fast. This was the scene when we left at about noon - it was knee deep already - magic!

Was in Flegere on Friday. Continuous snow. On a rental board in soft-soft boots while my carver was having a minor repair. Would have hated the board on hard pack, but on all the flufy stuff it was fairly enjoyable. Closed the blue half-way down from top of Index. Presumably people would be grinding to a halt in 2 feet of flat powder. Tried to pop over to Brevant, but closed. Then discovered pretty much everything was closed apart from a couple of greens. Got tired of 'em after 6 runs. I was missing my Doughboy (didn't think Chamonix could beat the powder I'd had in Feb in Jackson Hole).

Snow has returned to Chamonix with a vengeance! snowHead

Rained monday at resort level but snowed up top to give maybe a foot or so of snow on Tues with blue skies. Temps must have dropped over night because the snow and pistes were quite frozen first thing today and even now still are, but is has been snowing since 9 am when I came up Brevent, light to medium snow fall with low light that goes with it.I think I may try to stay low but it is my first time here so not too sure where my board is heading
