Is the half term going to be the best, snowiest conditions we have seen in the Alps during the popular school holiday? It's certainly looking that way as snow just keeps on falling and in droves never seen before by many of our faithful followers.

Over the past few weeks there has been epic snowfall, with many people claiming it's the best season for snow in years, and as the most popular time of the season to ski arrives, so does even more snow. This weekend boasts the perfect combination of snow and sunshine, with blue skies today and around 20cm of snow is forecast all over the place.
