[Start of the snow - the first few of the 20-25cm expected for Chamonix today]

Les Deux Alpes

Is falling pretty hard in Chamonix and looking like a huge week of snow ahead. Only part of me is glad it has arrived, superb climbing and glacial skiing conditions to be found over the last few weeks on very stable snow base. Yes piste skiing was getting a bit hard but main issue was people flocking to GM from the lower resorts in region. Anyway few days of watching out the window and then time to get the fat skis out and cross fingers that can't touch the bottom.

Another 10cm in town overnight and now is coming big :-). Only 1.5M in the 2 weeks forecast :-0. If anyone is about and wants to ski on morning of 6th let me know.

Wow, looks like it's famine to feast!

However, I'm not sure I'd necessarily vote for an entire week of snow with little or no sight of the sun.
