Minus 5 and dumping it down the bonus is that it is day off in the morning. Up to 50cms predicted by France Meteo. Should be a fun day.

Snow Now!
It's snowing! Down to about 800m well below resort – getting colder too and starting to stick on the roads. High winds closed all the high lifts once again this afternoon. Remember those days and days or calm weather with blue sky and sunshine???

First tracks at 9am this morning. About 10cm of fresh down to Le Praz top lifts should be open when we get back up. . .
2am Saturday Morning Snow
2am Saturday morning and snowing quite heavily. Forecast is not for much snow but coming down hard right now. High Winds once again this afternoon and some top lifts closed again, runs down in to Meribel stripped of snow on the way down to the Ronnie tonight but will recover when the bashers get out. All in all the piste skiing is still spot on, for the best day out get the groomed run list first thing and go hard…

Fantastic Piste Skiing
The old school hit a freshly groomed Jockeys first thing this morning. Then followed by more groomed blacks, Suisse, Creux, Chanrossa and then a blast down to 1650 for some of Katie’s Big Baps for lunch at La Boulotte. Another great day in the mountains. . .
