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 :-)

redrunmarcus, Very Happy That was a one day visit when we stayed in La Plagne back in 1994 we had a further 3 holidays in La Plagne over the time and then bought in Montalbert about 6 years ago.
Notice from that pic the old chairlift and we think the picture was taken on the edge of 50's decking and notice the Icy wastelands in the far background. Toofy Grin

redrunmarcus, Some clear details of how to get passes from Property owners association ie use Edenski! and the Tourist office is doing the 4 day weekend passes for €30.50 again.Other than that nothing new, no mention of new lifts but some nice pictures of the new Poubelles! No mention of what is happening to the old sheds or why there are no poubelles up at Chalets Montalbert!!
Stephane, the Tourism director doesn't appear to be leaving, so I guess he's here for another year.
There is a brief line that says l'Arb, Oursiere and sport Passion have new gerants (Managers). but no more details.
Maybe we should do our own newsletter, sponsored by ski4fun transfers wink

No it's actually a bloody good idea - especially if then we got the resorts to stick out daily feeds. Most smartphones have twitter clients, so how about 8am snow reports, avvy level, runs closed. then if the sit changes during the day then again bang it on the twitter. I was lookng at whether you could run is as an sms subscription service, but running it via twitter is much more cost-effective..
e.g @lesarcseng @lesarcsfr would do for differnet language feeds too...

great idea (c) Bertie Bassett 2010...

bertie bassett, I turn my phone off when I am skiing most of the time. So no thanks. Might sound like a great idea but all those beep beeps going off telling you another message has arrived. Yuk. . I hate phones going off all the time and people always talking on the lifts about abstract stuff. I like the peace and quiet in the mountains. That is one of the reasons I like them so much. But then I guess I am just old Twisted Evil

But no where near as sad as Facebook which in reality we are all too old for Laughing
As Bertie Bassett says Twitter is the way forward for clear information without all the crud confusion and half truths that go with FB.

No-one forcing you to take your phone or look at it, just a service that wouldn't be that hard for a marketing bod to deliver to skiers in a resort who choose to follow them...

I for one would have like getting the weather in english pre the 08:20 radio les arcs session...

You can get Radio les arcs and La Plagne on your laptop Very Happy Last seasom Radio La Plagne did their English news and weather at quarter to the hour from 6.45 perhaps you could listen to that, the weather would be similar? There is a link to Radio LP on the Twitter feed.
