S3V Confirm snow making has started for the season…
Temperatures have finally come down and snow yesterday and overnight has left 23cm on top of Saulire and around 10cm at Courchevel 1850.
With temperatures looking likely to be below average for the time of year (down to -2.3ºC in La Tania last night) for at least the next week or so the snow making system across the Courchevel and La Tania valleys is starting up.
Still quite early for this and whether they’ll start creating pistes down to 1850 remains to be seen or maybe they will just concentrate on establishing a base higher up.
There are now more that 650 snow cannons in this part of The 3 Valleys alone – covering more than half of the ski area. Courchevel is scheduled to open on 9 December with La Tania a week later on 16 December. Meanwhile Val Thorens are kicking things off with a free preview day to Club Val members on 17 November.
