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 :-)

Rally des Cretes
 Poster: A snowHead
Poster: A snowHead

Not everyone's cuppa but I took part in the Rallye des Cretes in the ski station of l'alpe du Grand Serre near Grenoble today. This event takes place over 15km with 1400 meters of climbing on touring skis. I came 14th out of 31 completing the course in 3h35. I'm not about to turn pro but am happy with that.

davidof, Looks like fun. How's the snow there right now? If I ever get a day off I quite fancy popping over - it looks really nice, but it isn't apparent from the website which way the slopes face - I would guess West but .....?

Well done. Cool

Here is a pic from the bottom of the pistes:

the slopes face North-West so are holding up quite well but they don't seem to have had quite as much snow as the nearby Vercors.
