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 :-)

Grand Massif

 Poster: A snowHead
Poster: A snowHead
Just returned from four days in Flaine and it has done nothing but snow for most of the time! We did get a few hours yesterday of sunshine in Morillon but mostly it has just snowed, which means that there is fantastic powder snow to be found throughout the Grand-Massif, even if the visibility has been between poor and very poor most of the time. The runs down to Morrillon village and Samoens Village were open but I didn't ski them. There is good snow to be found in the Flaine bowl under the "egg" Gondola but the number of runs open from the DMC is still very limited because of the lack of snow to fill up the crevasses. Mind you that said there is plenty of good skiing to be found snowHead

Finally worked out how to get some pictures hosted and here they are. First one is how much snow there was on the car after three days!

Burtonboy, it's easily missed.

Dunno about current conditions (there's some on here who probably do though) but it looks like there'll be more snow over the weekend. Not sure how much though.

Burtonboy,

Welcome!

Flaine's snow record is pretty good. In one year I had difficulty in driving driving through in a 4x4 with snowchains on the tyres!

French mid term break starts from second week of February so you are heading for a lot of queues. Flaine can be very busy at some locations but there are good skiing to be have. Enjoy!

Mark Lehto,

Nice one Very Happy

It is a dead end alright but you need to pass it in order to get to the big car park and I was sliding at the time. On that day one car slided off the road and into a slope before it could even reach Le Caroz. Don't think I have another occasion of using chains on a 4x4 again.

Burtonboy, I was there on 30th January and conditions were excellent. I believe that there has been snow since then, so you should be in business.

Burtonboy, France has staggered half-term weeks, so you can expect crowds anytime durind mid-late Feb. Uk half-terms are also increasingly different. My kids are on holiday this week, but their cousins in a neighbouring county, not until next week.

You're a bit late there, it's started. Shrove Tuesday or Fasching is a big holiday for a lot of Europe. Slopes are already full of once a year punters, it'll be quite horrible until March now.
