French ski resorts have received the best of the new snow with most resorts reporting powder conditions.
There has been a huge turn around in the past 7 days in the Alps. It’s been a very sunny week with most fresh snow just hitting Swiss and Italian ski resorts, but winter is now back! There are still clouds hovering over the mountains, particularly in Austria and even more snow is still expected to fall over the next few days. The long range 9 day forecast is predicting 250 cm in Lech and St Anton!
We’ve just been in Alpe d’Huez and even before the snowfall today, conditions were still great for end of season. Snow depth levels are still fantastic with 190 cm up top and 90 cm of snow on lower pistes. Here is our latest snow fall report from resort:
