Hi
We are looking to do a last minute trip to Haute Alps on 6 April, the resort height is 2600mm is the snow going to be ok then?
If not any advice where would be good? we are driving down so we can be flexible.

thanks
Jon

2600? You arent going to stay much higher than that.

sorry the resort height is 1500mm but top lift height is 2600m
Looks good coverage on the webcam at the moment

Which resort is this?
Skiing above 2000m generally should be ok, but it just depends on the weather at the time. Freezing lines will rise and fall but 200m is what I'd be looking to ski above that time of year.

Skied from La Joue du Loup a few years ago, but much earlier in the year. Remember it for the spectacular views and the shortest and easiest Black Run in France !
