*** La Tania Locals – Snow Report Update ***

Warmer… Bit snow later in the week?
After superb skiing on Thursday and first thing Friday the temperature has shot up and there's a sudden spring feel everywhere today. Looks like being fairly warm with spring like conditions for the next day or so but colder, more unsettled weather looks like it's heading over from mid-week. I bow to the Video Snow Report guru later though…

Gasex fall and lucky escape for La Tania local…

Posted on Fri 27 Feb 2009 at 11:45am

La Tania local Ian E was kept in hospital under observation for 48 hours and scanned for internal injuries but released after Doctors said he was unhurt. We hear that he dropped over the rocky/cliff section near the Lanches Chair, some 20m drop – his skis are still up there despite Kip trying to get them. Long Tom witnessed the whole thing, photos expected soon. Ian now back in the Hotel Montana, manager Simon has upgraded him to a bed from a bunk while he recovers…

Pistes in perfect shape

Posted on Thu 26 Feb 2009 at 12:06pm

Every run open in the Three Valleys except possibly the black Jean Blanc – haven’t been up there to check. Even Villages over in Meribel down to Les Allues is still fine. Great skiing continues and the number of kids around should drop significantly next week (and almost be eliminated the week after!). Another belter of a day today, deep blue skies and lunch on an outdoor terrace today I think…

So well done to Sanjhi , Loldip , nadita and Beckita for flying the La Tania Flag . Who needs Michelin Stars….

A little bit of new snow

Posted on Sun 22 Feb 2009 at 2:59pm

Wet snow down at resort level and an unbelievable change after the sun of yesterday. Video forecast was right again.

Those who got out first thing enjoyed some clean lines although fairly poor visibility higher up. Should be plenty of more sun around for the rest of the week though and piste conditions remain excellent.
