Fantastic late season powder in the grand massif

Thursday, April 12th, 2012

Yesterday was incredible conditions every where above 1600m. At Flaine I was measuring 50-60 cm of new snow. It snowed heavy all of tuesday night to leave fantastic ski conditions yesterday. I was like a kid in a sweet shop, just did not know which run to do next and Jack from Zig Zag ski hire had given me a pair of next seasons Scott Reverse to try and try them I most certainly did, great ski’s. Once again the Grand Massif is living up to its reputation as one of the best, snow sure resorts.

20″ of fresh powder in the Grand Massif

Wednesday, March 2nd, 2011

40-50 cm of new snow arrived on Saturday night and during the day Sunday, giving us some of the best skiing of the season so far. We had a great day skiing on Monday with untracked powder to be found everywhere. Cascades piste from Flaine down to Sixt (below 800 metres) is open, which means the snow is good right down to 800m. A snow mail alert also came in today with snow forecast for Les Carroz in the next six days.

There really is a lot of snow

: Exciting stuff in the airon bowl

More snow than you can shake a stick at is what springs to mind. With snow depths of up to 3 metres in the Grand Massif there is certainly plenty of the white stuff. Yesterday we had great piste skiing in Les Carroz and Flaine and superb off piste at Gers, Flaine, Vernant and Airon bowl. Temperatures are very low at present so keeping the snow in really good condition with super soft powder off piste.
