Courchevel 9 th 16th Dec

Hi All, Booked a weeks skiing in Courchevel in Early December. However I'm now a little concerned my cheap holiday will turn out to be a fecking walking holiday rather than a skiing holiday as Winter has not come yet!! arhhhh

Someone please tell me there will be snow when I get there in December. Looked at the past history and I should have nothing to worry about. Has anyone been their in Early December? Season looks to open on the 5th Of December.

This.

It's all quiet on the Western Front for now, but an awful lot of snow can fall in a couple of weeks.

If the worst comes to the worst you could always hike up to Val Thorens and ski there... :wink:

Keep looking forward to your cheap week on the snow - it will happen!

I am to heading to Courchevel in December, on the 16th. I've been looking at the forecast and webcams on a daily basis and I'm to a little worried with the lack of winter weather they have had yet, especially if you use the historique feature on the courchevel site which shows you webcam images of specific dates the year before, and this time last year the place was completely white! I know that in the mountains the conditions can change rapidly, I found this back in 2006 when spending half a season in Bannff I was horrified to find the resorts had hardly any snow and then the next dat it started snowing and literally didn't stop snowing for a further 10 days and everything changed! I hope my holiday doesn't turn into Mont Genevre 2005 when it did turn into a walking holiday!! Fingers crossed!

Hey guys, look on the bright side. The snow will be completely fresh and unskied by eejits if it arrives the week before you go :twisted:

No I think people are right to be worried. Temps are far too high. I cant see there being any skiing until after xmas.

Relax, the snow will arrive.
