Global warming?

Cheapo is as cheapo does!

Boilerplate!. Roll on the next snow fall!

Well, the precipitation promised duly arrived this weekend, but not as snow, but rain, all the way to 2500m!
It rained constantly for around 36hours and it remains to be seen what effect it has had on the snowpack.
For anyone interested, I will report back later. At least the sun is shining this morning!

Google should tell you. Have you considered that option?

Oakley A frames with Persimmon lenses are also good. Can be bought from Amazon at practical prices too!

You can pretty much guarantee that the road from France will be closed if the snow that is forecast materialises. So the only access to Soldeu/Pas will be via Spain. On the subject of the lifts, they are pretty vulnerable unfortunately, above mid station(2200m). In fact the upper lifts and links were closed this morning and the wind didn't seem too bad below 2200m. They opened up however and a good days skiing was had.
Noticeably warmer in Soldeu today!

Summit magnetic interchangeable lenses work well, come in small or larger sizes, and come in at £90 or less. They are at the functional rather than fashion market point.
I would strongly recomend them!
