When going to Courchevel go via La Loze and not the Saulire. Blues down to Courchevel from La Loze.

If you want to go down from Saulire use les Creux red and not the Combe de Saulire - it is far easier.

Had a mouthful of coffee as I read that. Some dribbled down my nose and I got a very strange look from the lad sitting next to me.

Is that unusual?

I'm happy to be going to VT as snow/forecast looks good but going to want to explore the whole area.

Everything is planned to be open by the 15th - but, of course, snow is needed for lower runs - or at least nice cold weather and snow cannons.

You should be fine .

In 6 weeks time I will be waiting at St pancras for the Eurostar to leave for Paris and then onwards to Tignes

Whenever I saw your girls together Smartski - I was struck by how well they seemed to be getting on, always chatting - and confident around the other guests too.

Is it that you, as parent, just get all the "problems" thrown at you and when you are not around they are fine. I suggest this as that is my experience - the Lout gets amazing compliments from others - to the extent that MrsOA and I are convinced people must be talking about someone else!

Is that vertical or horizontal?

Well done Adders - you managed all on your own this year.

I thought a little then and now may prove enjoyable........

Same view captured from the Tignes Val Claret webcam end of November 2011 and end of November 2012........





What a difference a year makes.
