So
Its been dumping and I if you ask me way more than initially forecasted. More on the way tomorrow too, at least 15cm
About 3 inches at town level and double that on the lower slopes when I walked up yesterday
Forecast for another 15cm tomorrow
then clear skies on thursday when the lifts open
It should be epic

Hi Nick D. Won't be down to Oz until 13th Jan for a boys weekend and then with the family the week after. When're you going to be down?

Renry, i think Mont Blanc would be blocked out by Pic Blanc and Pic Bayle from Marmottes
|

Bjorn_again_Daehlie, We're out there for the boys week commencing 23rd Jan, big group this year, will try and keep the noise down!

Yes I think your right, shortly after I posted (lunch break at work) I had a look at the piste map and it suggests thsat it is indeed in the line of site beyond Pic Blanc

Any news over the weekend? We are arriving on Friday and I'm really hoping theres a bit more snow and a bit more than 11 slopes open! Also, we're staying out in the altiport area - does any one know if the slopes that go past that are open yet? Going to be a mission into town for the main lifts if not.

kat.ryb, welsome to snowheads. If you look at the webcam here from the Bergers area http://www.alpedhuez.com/hiver/fr/985/webcams-360-.html you can see the chalets at the altiport and it looks like it is pisted from there. That is ther Romains piste I think that runs between the chalets and down to Bergers

kat.ryb, that piste returns you to the altiport chalets from the top of marmottes 1. We tend to have a beer there at the end of the day. It was 12 euros for a litre glass, a couple of those then ski back down right to our chalet door

I was reading in another thread where someone was asking about walkie talkies. A reply was to get a local £10 pay as you go sim and put it in your phone.
I was wondering if that would be a good idea for AHD. Is there a shop in the Bergers are that sell them.

Great, thanks for the update Skola Glad I bought an HI Yellow oakley lens with all that snow forecast.

Not sure where the freeze level is but the word from a friend in Oz (1350m) at 3.00 this afternoon was rain rain rain. Seems to be playing out as forecast, hope the rain doesn't trash what must be quite a thin base at lower levels before the freeze level drops and the dump starts!
