Snow Update - 15 Jan 2025
High Pressure continues to dominate with lots of sunshine and blue sky but cold, clear skies at night with temperature down to -5°C at #LaTania resort level. This is keeping pistes in excellent condition with the usual hard pack in heavy traffic areas in late afternoon.
Outlook is for more of the same although outlier models showing a break down possible towards the end of next week - serious weather systems to the North East could bring plenty of snow if they were dragged this way!
All lifts open in Orelle, Mottaret, Méribel, Les Menuires, St Martin and Val Thorens (except for the damaged Cime Caron cable car - access from the other side is fine on the Orelle-Caron gondola). Courchevel "The World Capital of Skiing" has 2 lifts not running: Coqs (only running in school holidays) and the Gros Murger drag lift which they appear to have given up on.
Saulire snow depth reported as 150cm and Courchevel 1850 resort level as 98cm. Val Thorens highest point is showing at 210cm. The usual minor lower runs down to St Bon, Les Allues, Le Raffort and Plan du Vah are closed.
Off piste avalanche risk across the 3 Valleys is 3 out of 5 (Considerable Risk).
Enjoy...

RIP Mitch – La Tania Family Loses A Much Loved Local, Colleague and Friend

What's New for Winter 2025
The new 2025 Three Valleys Piste Map is now available to download. It includes just the two "new" logos this year - The new Deux Lacs 10 seater gondola in Val Thorens and the new restaurant building at the Cime Caron summit (a 130 seat restaurant with wine bar and rooftop bar / viewing area).
The new Face Nord blue piste above Asters down from the Col de Thorens at the top of the Thorens Funitel that we think was skied / tested last Winter is now marked on the map. Similarly the Marières piste introduced last year linking the Gros Tougne and Pelozet pistes above St Martin is now detailed.
No marking of a rumoured rope tow to link up the flat track at the top of the Bouc Blanc chair area from the "Rock" near to Chenus - this would be hand for beginners heading back from Méribel to La Tania avoiding the black and red runs (or course if they kept Coqs - which is still marked - this wouldn't be so much of an issue).
Coqs is still there - but probably for the last time and who know how often it will open, probably just when Chenus breaks down! The repaired Saulire Cable Car is re-instated on to the map and is due to open for the 6 December 2024 opening.
The red Moretta run in to #LaTania terminates early linking with the green Plan Fontaine piste through the forest back to resort as was the case last year as the Moretta Village building work continues.
The individual valley maps are now available on our Piste Maps Page
