There's so much snow arriving this week, the powder hounds will be lapping it up for days. With the immense base, the consistently cold temperatures and the regular snowfall, there are hidden pockets of powder to be found for days after the last snow fall.
This week sees up to half a metre of fresh powder coming, with France and Italy boasting the best snow, Switzerland with pockets of pow and a good quality dusting hitting the Austrian slopes. We always say March is the best time to ski or snowboard, with the snow and sunshine this winter is definitely showing why.
France is having another awesome week of snow with around 30cm of fresh powder falling across the Tarantaise Valley as well as the popular Oisans resorts of Alpe d'Huez and Les Deux Alpes — which is boasting a whopping 46cm of snow!
