My Tignes forecast is now showing Thursday pm to start with a little (few cm's) and "heavy snow" period on Friday night.

Mine are North Face two parters - inners don't come out unless I want them to :)

I prefer a two part glove, where the shell and liner come apart.
Great for drying and also when it is hot (just use the shell).

Well ....
Surprise, surprise - for this year at least!!!!
The snow forecast (French Alps) for next Wednesday has now moved out to Thursday/Friday.
Although on a positive temps. are well down and they are suggesting nearly a big dump for the first w/end in December which would be nice.
:D

Seems everyone is still guessing when this persistent high will clear off. :lol:

You make pigs smoke. You feed beef burgers to swans. You have big sheds, but nobody's allowed in. And in these sheds you have 20ft high chickens, and these chickens are scared because the don't know why they're so big, and they're going,
"Oh why am I so massive?"
and they're looking down at all the little chickens and they think they're in an aeroplane because all the other chickens are so small.
Do you deny that?

They're not chickens you divot !!
They are Turkeys!

Stop it Val, Tignes, Courchevel etc. are all terrible resorts, No attraction for real skiers whatsoever.
Don't try and kid people who have never been into wasting their hard earned cash and holidays in going.

Who is up for it?

In the diary ....

Mind you not sure about this feet on the ground bit, always felt some clear step work is beneficial.
We must do a controlled trial to find out if feet firmly planted or a more active, free form, style is better?
