**Snow Update**

New Snow
Above around 1550m the trees are white. Snowing quite heavily last night at Meribel 1600, should be some pockets of powder up there although probably quite heavy until you get high up. Sunny this morning although due to cloud over later with the chance of some more snow showers.

1am – It’s Snowing!

There's always at least one Powder Day in April…. Go Hard…

Team Ski Higher

On the Charity Float Procession down Troika yesterday….

Rain Low Down, Snow High Up

A thoroughly miserable day down in resort today (and after the highs
of yesterdays Charity Day it felt even worse) but a little sunshine
and some fresh snow high up for those who braved the torrential rain
low down this morning and managed to get out.

Pistes starting to suffer now although still plenty of cover to get
down to resort until the end of the season.

Higher up on the freshly groomed runs not directly facing the sun
there is still some decent skiing and boarding.

FFS Charity walk

Suzz, Chris, James, Nathan and Helen from Family Friendly Skiing walked from Bozel (870m) to the top of Saulire (2738m) on Tuesday in just over 4 hours to raise money for La Tania's Charity Day.  They were joined by Matt, Merv and Miele (the dog who has a passion for chasing skiers and snowboarders).  Despite many puzzled looks as they all (except Miele) snow-shoed their way from 1850 to the summit on one of the hottest days of the year so far, the whole team made it up in time to stop for a bite to eat in 1850 and a beer back in Le Praz.  Although money is still being collected so far they have managed to raise over 400 Euros.

Attached are photos of some of the team at the start  in Bozel 312 and at the top 334.
