A front moved in over night giving a dusting of snow in Courchevel 1850 and poor visibility this morning. As predicted only the Verdons lift and piste opened however the cannoned snow was nicely groomed and grippy. Very quiet this morning and on the first bubble. Some large piles of snow around ready for pisting. If the forecast is correct it should be possible for a link from Col de la Loze to 1850 via Loze and return via Cretes and Arolles next weekend. I expect that we will have to download on the La Tania gondola. No a classic start but at least its a start. NICK www.nickskithreevalleys.co.uk
