What grade were those runs?

The ones with little Snapzzz are blue.
The majority of the rest were red.
The one after the cable car is black/red.

It's weird that ALL slopes look so gentle on video and photos. I watched a vid last night of the Harikari in Austria, which is supposed to be Europes steepest black. It looked like a blue!

Ever noticed this?

Personally i am sure its a lovely place, i would go but perhaps just for a day or weekend as it looks really small. But then i have never been so am not really qualified to answer.

That pic sure makes it look inviting thats for sure.

Thanks for sharing.

(Snapzzz Minor coming along nicely as well!)

Shes a real gem bless her.
She is one of those kids every parent should wish for, absolutely no trouble (yet), beautiful and loves her dad.

Just wish she'd ditch the snow plough and ski faster with me ;-)

A few moments from my recent trip to Les Arcs.

This year i didn't seem to find the time to record much go pro footage, i think i was too busy skiing!

A scary vid, try watching it without looking at the clock to experience the fear.

It's a good question though and something I had also thought about being a spring skier as I am!

But don't forget your leaves are not going to freeze it? The grass under 2m of snow is going to be frozen solid like your frozen peas! It will retain its colour until it thaws when it is likely to get the light and warmth it needs to 'spring' back to life.
