Log in to snowHeads to make it MUCH better! Registration's totally free, of course, and makes snowHeads easier to use and to understand, gives better searching, filtering etc. as well as access to 'members only' forums, discounts and deals that U don't even know exist as a 'guest' user. (btw. 50,000+ snowHeads already know all this, making snowHeads the biggest, most active community of snow-heads in the UK, so you'll be in good company)..... When you register, you get our free weekly(-ish) snow report by email. It's rather good and not made up by tourist offices (or people that love the tourist office and want to marry it either)... We don't share your email address with anyone and we never send out any of those cheesy 'message from our partners' emails either. Anyway, snowHeads really is MUCH better when you're logged in - not least because you get to post your own messages complaining about things that annoy you like perhaps this banner which, incidentally, disappears when you log in :-)

Light snow all night and most of this morning - about 10-20cms on the mountain which was a TREAT and definitely refreshed the mountain. Pistes still quiet a tad busier given the fresh stuff but still held up most of the day. After being recommended by a local guy we spent most of the morning above Clotes, Bourget and as far across into Moncrons as we could get (new lift still closed so was mostly self propelled). Completely empty up there so highly recommended and the snowfall was enough to make the tree skiing accessible and a lot of fun for anyone after some off piste. Plenty of light powder to be found round there both on and off piste - defo pass on the recommendation we had! Brilliant day!!!

@letsgetpiste, From the many different weather reports I've seen. Only one has mentioned any sign of rain at village level. 1mm on Monday. However most I have checked are still predicting some snow for next week, especially towards the end of the week.

Maybe the clever chaps in the weather outlook thread can shed some more light. They speak a language I don't understand.

Apart from poor visibility, yesterday was great with lots of snow overnight. Pistes are good today and off piste great if you can find some untracked areas. More snow forecast tomorrow. Anyone coming next week should have no issues as the pistes are in great shape.

@Graucho, You little beauty... I fly out tomorrow and I'm seriously considering moving away from the traditional piste carver and skiing something a little fatter and more like 85mm underfoot. With your update there, it sounds like I may just have the conditions to suit them perfectly!! snowHead

Was in Montgenevre today. Pistes are good but off piste quite hard in places where it's exposed. Through the trees is excellent.
Snowing in Sauze at the moment so hopefully another top up overnight.

Last report from Sauze. Snowed last night with around 10cm of new snow and snowed all day today. Pistes are excellent and off piste around Sauze and Sansicario is fantastic. If the visibility is good then next week will be as awesome as this week.

Was over the back of Montgenevre ski touring in a valley below Gondrans and if you take a look in the Serre thread you'll see what it was like Cool

Arrived in Sauze at midday and managed to get up on the slopes by 1:30! Conditions yesterday were borderline white out with occasional break through moments... Today though...
Blue skies and sunshine. Pistes are in wonderful condition. Off piste is tracked. Skiing available all the way down to jovencaux and all the links open. Anyone out here this week is arriving to optimum conditions.
I'm in my absolute element here!! This evening will mostly be about red wine and pizza! snowHead

Managed to get a couple of hours on the pistes yesterday afternoon after we arrived.
Cracking day. Blue sky and sun.

Even after a busy day of skiing, the pistes were still in good nick.

Looks like another bluebird day today as well. Temperatures are comfortable. Not much wind.

Snow expected Thursday onwards. [/img]

Pistes lovely and quiet.

There may be a dusting high up tonight but failing that snow still expected Wednesday onwards.

@sn0wman, it takes a lot of time to ski to Montgenevre from Sestriere but Crystal and other ski companies run a bus which you could probably hop on if there are spare places. There are some testing reds in between Montgenevre and Claviere and some good blacks on the south facing slopes which are best tackled in the morning. There are only two places to eat on the slopes, one on the north side, one on the south side.

Complete whiteout in some places in Montgenevre today. Strong gusty winds at times. Snow getting heavier when we decided to come down about 3ish. Hopefully some decent fresh powder all over for tomorrow and less wind.

Just had a great meal at Le Jamy, even though it's not called that anymore despite the sign out front still saying Le Jamy. Great pizza and profiteroles.

Walked back to chalet in heavy snow at village level. Chucking it down so hopefully will wake up to plenty of fresh white stuff!

Amazing. Knee deep powder on the top slopes in places.

Only downside was the visibility and the wind up top but clearing up this afternoon.

Last few hours, then England V France and then home tomorrow.
