OK, so after the sadness of the last few days we're back in Tignes, albeit sans-photos 'coz my camera has gone flat. So it's been bluebird conditions, and I've been up on the pistes. We actually dared venture down as far as La Daille, and were quite surprised to see that the pistes are hard, but not icy, and have some snow movement on the top of them. There are a few rocks on piste, especially down towards La Daille, but if you're prepared to take it easy (or ollie at warp speed) then you'll be fine.
Trolles (the Black into Le Lac) is closed, but Piste H, Double M and the Grattalu area are really quite good for mid-December.
Temperatures are due to rise on Thursday, but hopefully not for long. The Cannons are working all day and all night at the moment to sort out the lower areas, and they're laying down solid amounts of snow. Looks like a nice base for this early in the season. Another dump and we should be all good.
Apparently we have 30cm of snow at 2100m and 80cm at 3000m, for those of you who care...
