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 :-)

That looks very quiet for October half-term. I thought that view would be full of gates and eager young racers.

 Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

No race lanes in that section right at the top, and not that busy really elsewhere, although the queues for the first funicular at 8.30am have been getting steadily longer...

A few racers around though...

Looks nice - fingers crossed for a bit more snow.

Is Hannah enjoying the training?

spyderjon, the new snow cut up badly early on, no hard frost last night (probably not much below zero at 3000m). To give you an idea, the kids in the photo were standing around in catsuits from first thing and none were complaining of the cold...

rob@rar.org.uk, nothing but race training, no free skiing, so it's hard work. They stick with it though, and genuinely enjoy themselves. Sure there's rivalry, but it's good-natured. A really impressive bunch of kids, so mature for a group of 12 to 14 year olds. Some positive comments from the French trainers who've watched a number of GS runs - genuinely surprised by the skiing standards.

Glad to hear it's going well. Snow looks very soft; that can't be fun, bet there were holes developing all over the place.

Bit overcast today, not particularly cold, no snow. Ever larger chunks of the glacier given over to race training lanes, and it was soon very noticeable how little snow there was in the narrow free skiing areas except right up at 3500. Within the first hour we were mostly down to the ice, although there was plenty of fun to be had in the soft stuff thown to the edge of the piste. Queues for lifts still not too bad, but the population of Tignes is growing by the day.

PG, you're really setting me off pining for the mountains snowHead

No seriously, fantastic photos keep them coming, it's brilliant to see the kids having a great time. Keep the updates coming also, we're coming over to Tignes at the very beginning of December for a few days on a lads trip........having a blast for a few days with the odd glass of lemonade thrown in wink

Mouth, all being well we'll all be up at Tignes tomorrow am!

Grimsby Ranger, having fun, yes - some of the time! From fifteen members of the GB team to start with, it's down to thirteen... with a broken thumb for one youngster and concussion for another meaning a trip to hospital and no more skiing for a while. Nothing serious, but glacier training is a tough regime! Up at the crack of, a free-for-all to get on the first funicular (when will Tignes get its act together and organise things properly?), and really difficult courses set to test the kids to the limit over some very long days on the mountain.

Couple of shots of the mountain today, perfect weather - here (snow looking a bit thin lower down) and here.
