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 :-)

The guy who writes these is clearly a frustrated author. Check out the snow reports for Courchevel (note the 25th Jan was a stand in as he was apparently a little unwell).

Quote:
Yesterday was probably the best day skiing we have had in Courchevel for a little while. The resort pulled back the curtains, collectively wishing the forecast to have been good and true: powder overnight with all cloud dispersing before dawn, like Father Christmas dropping off presents, eating mince pies and silently going on his merry way. And lo, so it was! Adults turned children rushed children through breakfast, turned getting dressed into even more of a military operation and headed out with a youthful smirk, itching to open the present which they wished for above anything else. That beautiful morning where on and off piste are in seamless harmony, the trees shimmer and bow under the weight of the snow, everybody leaving their own little mark on the untracked mountain, a palimpsest of winter happiness – if only I hadn’t spent the day in the ski shop with a broken boot. Like the child whose school remains open whilst the siblings are building snowmen in the park, I was devastated. There will be other days like this, won’t there?


Brilliant! Very Happy Hopefully I'll be writing something very similar after a run up to Cairngorm this weekend wink (Er, once I look up the meaning of palimpsest.....)

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

This is prodigious, and the language it uses is quixotic and odic, all proclamations should be written by this ink slinger(first thing I did was look up the meaning of palimpsest) Laughing

Awesome, palimpsest is a great word (that I had to go look up) to describe what a fresh snow fall means.

Deck chairs in the defiant afternoon sun. Cocktails at dusk. Liquid drum and bass and funky house until the early hours. Ayia Napa? Heaven forbid, Ibiza? No – forget Pete Tong – Courchevel. 1850, 1650, 1550, Le Praz, take your pick. A summer vibe has percolated all levels of the resort as Frank Sinatra’s frightful festive weather becomes a distant December memory. January’s winter sun is packing a punch with factor 50, freckles and the oh-so-fashionable goggle tan becoming commonplace in resort. The dogged anticyclonic high is preparing for battle with a westerly front on Thursday, but until then at least, Mojito’s, anyone?

and todays report says...


‘Sweetie Darling Sweetie Darling, let’s go skiing, it’s Val D’Isere, the most prestigious resort in the alps’, well, one has to wonder if Eddie would change that to Courchevel if the series was still running as there seems to be more sparklers and grey goose in this town than one can shake a ski pole at.  Regardless of whether that sort of soiree is your cup of tea, there is a collective appreciation about this resort and that is summed up in two delicious words ‘Absolutely Fabulous’.
To top it all off as the must-go resort this season we have been basking in golden rays most of this week.  Whilst this is a serotonin junkie’s dream, it leaves its inevitable mark as reverse panda eyed seasonnaires start to swear blind they’ve been working more than they have been skiing.  And just when we wondered whether it was going to snow again the mountain skies became enveloped in thick grey snow cloud.  Talk of a metre or more over the weekend has sent shivers down the coach drivers spine for departing guests, however it has a similar effect on arriving guests inducing childish excitement and unbreakable smiles, especially considering it is predicted to be sun sun sun from Sunday onwards!!!
