  • First day at the Grand Massif (Flaine). We are staying in Samoens. Oh the queues. Apparently Dutch school holidays. 15 minute queues at 3 successive lifts out and 2 on the way back.

  • Not that it helps you but I think this is the ladt week of school hols. Interseting about the Dutch, we've seen hardly any (like 1 or 2 groups) in Serre Che, always used to be loads. Maybe cos we've got no snow...
    How're the conditions there? Think the North Alps have had a lot more snow than here

  • In desperate need of new snow. Pistes are very tired with good coverage up high but the top surface gets skied off by lunchtime. Anything north facing is an ice sheet and testy.
    Flaine not surprisingly offers the best pistes. As for the satellite resorts the runs back to the villages are either closed or like water skiing at the end of the day
    Thanks to all the beginner/intermediate there are some brilliant mogels to ski. They seem to build during the day and are great around 3.30.
