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 :-)

It wasn't steep really, only around 30 degrees, a nice easy wide couloir. Good fun. Smile

Well, this will surprise George, I came across this thread and even managed to register with SnowHeads, not bad for someone whos computer illiterate. So, straight from the horse's mouth (or mum in this case !), George can definately NOT handle his alcohol (thinking back to his first experience and spending two hours asleep on the grass verge outside our house............!)

Stewart got back from Italy Wednesday night and had a very sad few beers in the Alpaka.
He's now out teaching in the new powder, and is going over to La Ross this afternoon to do a ski race Smile Madeye-Smiley

Good luck with the job Very Happy

Thankyou to everyone for their welcomes. I wont be posting much as I don't want to cramp George's style or embarress him ! Very reassuring to know all you at Snowheads look out for each other, it's like a second family for George and the 'boys'. Oh yes, George, when you have a shower, don't forget to dry between your toes. x

Georgesmum, you couldnt cramp my non-existant style.

Everyone: Had work today, managed to get out for a couple of hours over lunch time and had an amazing ski! very tracked out, but the snow was so light it was still amazing to ski, had a few runs under the palafour, then over the side of palafour under the avalanche barriers where we amazingly found fresh tracks for an hour or so.
Work was unbelievably tiring, I am ready for bed now.

szy, powder is mainly tracked out if you go to runs accesible by lift, lots of fresh tracks if you are willing to hike/traverse a long long way!!!

stewart woodward, Don't know if you heard yet, I managed to lose my job! Not my fault though, apparently they have a guy who speaks fluent french and is very experienced came along and he decided to give him my job, unbelievably rude!! (especially after he made me miss most of the best day of the season so far!) So, I'm now looking for another job! If you know anything that is going, put me in touch and I'll get you some pork pies! wink

stewart woodward, george_1, Quick question for you Tignes locals. How easy is it to ski back to the Hauts de Toviere (Mark Warner/Scottys bar)?. Just booked for the end of the month and we haven't stayed in Lavachet before. Puzzled I know its only a 6-7 minute walk from the Alpaka but we were just wondering how close you can get to it with skis on Very Happy . Other half has had a recent shoulder op and isn't up to carrying skis too far.
ps. what is it about Stewart and pork pies??? snowHead snowHead snowHead

george owen, The closest you can get is about 10 metres away from scotties, the piste ends opposite scotty's/next to brasero. absolutely tiny walk! Bring Stewart some pork pies and his eyes light up, like a child at christmas! haha.

There is a pisted track that leads off the top of the lavachet beginner slope. It's called the Digues on the piste map.
