26th March: Foot of Snow last night!

Yep, that's a foot of snow last night. It was kinda whiteout today, but we still managed to lay some sweet lines. The base is now standing at 260cms = which is HUGE, so should see us through to the close of season at the middle of May. It's been windy, so it's a little thin on the ridges, but otherwise we're on full winter super-cold snow conditions. Brilliant.....

22nd March: Snowing!

It's snowing! It's been doing so all week (on and off), but not very heavily. What it has done is soften up the pistes just nicely, and lay down a layer just in time to cause havoc on the roads for transfer day - I can't wait for tomorrow! The temps have been SERIOUSLY cold (-15), so the snow is brilliant and the spring slush of a couple of weeks ago has disappeared. This is more like it! Big dump due next week....

15th March: Sunny!

Hi everyone. Firstly, apologies for my lack of blogging. I was sick all last week, and working ridiculously hard on the expansion for Ride Tignes for next year (we're about to get VERY big), whilst at the smae time setting up the Dive Company for the summer in Egypt. It's been mayhem, and I've been neglecting you!

So anyway, it's been really sunny and warm up here, and the snow is slowly melting - but don't worry, we've still gots loads left! It's been proper spring / slush skiing, which I love. It's brilliant for jumping and trying new tricks as your more likely to drown than hurt yourself. Next week though it's al change - back to minus 10 and 60 - 70 cm of snow forecast...

Bring it on!

Ian

2nd March: Still Snowing...

1st March: Still DUMPING!!!

This is getting silly...

After a day of bluebird on Tuesday 27th, and probably the best day I've ever had in the Espace Killy, it's been snowing ever since. It must have dropped another 30cm or so in the last 24 hours. It's just put another 5cm down on my car in the last 3 hours. This is a LOT of snow.

Here's a few pictures of Chardonnet Bowl to inspire - honestly, what a day.
