Snow at the top of ski area is 160cm and the snow depth in resort is 45cm.

The Pistes are perfect at the moment in the mornings for some fast skiing and carving practice as they are lovely and hard packed without ever being icy. Skiers love the first runs down chamossiere and the reds in the bowl too and in the afternoon the slopes become great fun for snowboarding.

Today we are skiing the Morzine side so will be covering the Point de Nyon and Chamossiere runs as well as the lower side including the quiet slopes around the Atray lift we are expecting it to be great fun as Morzine in general has also been very quiet recently. On Friday we will venture to Avoriaz where despite being hot the snow also remains in good condition with the Coupe du Monde run which was used as a world cup downhill run in the 90s is one of the favourites for those who enjoy blacks. For red and blue skiers the linderet forest will be lovely as well as the Fornet area and the area under the Lac des Intrets lift.

Weather forecast for next 3 days
The forecast for the next few days is sun, sun, sun! With light winds and clear skies its going to be beautiful!

We had a sprinkling of snow on Sunday morning, a gentle dusting across the slopes.

The weather is absolutely stunning this week, pure blue skies, every single day. The snow is good, especially high up, like at the top of schindlergrat and valluga. For other good pistes that are a little lower down, but still good, stuben and St Christoph are good in the afternoons. The heavy snow means that you definitely deserve your lunch by the time it comes around, and there is nothing better than eating a well deserved lunch on the mountain, enjoying the beautiful sunshine and gorgeous views.

More sun for the next two days and then the possibility of more snow on Friday!!

The spring is definitely here, every lunch time the goggles are off , the sunglasses are on and as much skin out as people dare to bare. Rendl beach is becoming more and more beach like. People sit there for hours watch not waves and swimmers but jumps and skiers. Music, picnics, snow-chilled beer and some good entertainment pretty much sums up Rendl at the moment.

Snow up at Seceda, the upper piste depth is 70cm, while the snow depth in resort in 30cm.

The slopes have become noticeably quieter this week which reduces the risk of mogels building up through the day. The tree lined blues in Plan de Gralba are maintaining good snow through the day and benefit from a bit of shade in the afternoon. The Canazei bowl also offers a broad area of north facing slopes that always offers plenty of space for practicing those large carving turns.

Impressive snow conditions can also be found on our away days to The Hidden Valley, Cinque Torri and Cortina. Deserted slopes and north facing slopes make for some beautiful skiing conditions despite the warmer spring conditions.

Weather Forecast for the next 3 days
Clear weather conditions for next few days with a slight chance of light cloud on Thursday.
Maximum temperature 6c and Minimum temperature – 5c over the next 3 days.

We had the last ski show of the season on the Freina slope last night put on by the Freestlye Ski School of Selva.

Vaujanay and Montfrais continue to offer perfect, wide picturesque, well groomed pistes including Les Rousses, Les Bartavelles, Edelveis, Vaujaniette among others. While Petit Prince and Les Vallons down to Villard Reculas still have some beautiful snow in the morning. The main basin is perfect for some sweeping carves on any of the greens like Les Sagnes, blues like Les Coulouir and reds like Les Chamois and as you climb higher towards 3300 metres the snow remains fresh and crunchy all day despite the glorious sunshine.

Sunny skies are forecast for Wednesday, Thursday and Friday with a light breeze through the clear skies.

International Gay Ski week is in full swing with a jam packed programme of events available on the European gay ski week website. Next week Alpe d’Huez will hold the French Snow Grooming machine drivers championship.

A perfect mix of glorious sunshine, superb snow and empty slopes make Verbier and the 4 Valleys a wonderful place to spend a weeks spring skiing. Every one of the 4 Valleys 410km of runs are open and with good snow cover despite temperatures reaching a balmy 23°C at resort level which means you’ll have plenty of room to explore and indulge your adventurous side! Runs are nice and firm in the morning but the best snow can be found around mid-day when the snow softens slightly. To get the best of Verbier this week stay above Les Ruinettes; Lac De Veux and the long run in between Attelas and Ruinettes are particular highlights!

Blue skies and sunshine are predicted throughout the week with temperatures expected to stay high. There may be some snow towards the end of the week with Sunday currently looking the most likely.

The final of the Freeride world tour took place over the weekend with Reine Barkered of Sweden taking first place in the elite men’s final. Almost 10,000 people packed out the Col De Gentianes to watch the action as the worlds best free riders came down the Bec de Rosse in an electrifying final!

Snow at the top of ski area is 168cm, while the snow depth in resort is 131cm

The snow pack is hard but the weather is beautiful and the landscape is stunning. Compared to this time last year the piste conditions could be considered excellent! Spring time skiing is with us! The best thing to do at this time of year is to ski early, have a great lunch somewhere up the mountain and relax in the afternoon. Usually with a Van Chaud or une bière bien fraîche!

Weather forecast for next 3 days
We have had brilliant sunshine for the past 4 days and the sunny weather is set to continue. The next five days are set to be sunny with little or no breeze. The freezing level is at about 2000m so there is good skiing on the higher runs in Courchevel 1850.

Kate Middletons parents have been spotted this week in Courchevel! Unfortunately no Pippa!

Snow – top of ski area 180cm at the Idalp and the snow depth in resort is 60cm

Guests this week are already marvelling at how splendid the weather is! There is surprise all round at the great condition of the snow – with the warmer weather the expectation is for ice and slush but with nearly two metres of base Ischgl is safe. Not to mention the fact that the piste bashers have been hard at work – especially on the Palinkopf side, everything is very smooth. Red 40 is made for shooting down, and round by Alp Trida all the 60s have great snow.

The park is better than ever and if you hit them in the morning the duty free runs down to Samnaun are absolutely stunning.

Weather forecast for next 3 days

Snow at the top of the ski area still has a massive base of 302cm and the lower runs are well covered with 10cm.

With the bright sunshine and milder temperatures, the snow is doing well to stay in good condition on the higher slopes – especially on the glacier. Do the home runs first thing in the morning, when they are in their best condition. Off-piste there are still areas, especially on the glacier, which will still be fun.

The sun will be sticking around for the whole week, with a few clouds closing in on Wednesday evening which will bring the odd snow shower overnight. The clouds will still be lingering on into Thursday morning, and will gradually thicken to bring light snow on Thursday afternoon. This will, however, be short lived and the sun will return on Friday. Wind will be generally light and temperatures will be quite mild – with maximum temperatures staying above freezing. Down in town temperatures will reach highs of 7 or 8 degrees Celsius – but will feel a lot warmer in the sun.

We are now firmly into tea-shirt and hoody season here in Saas Fee! Despite the rising temperatures however the skiing is still fantastic on piste with the skiing conditions on and around the glacier still some of the best around. Off piste powder is still to be found after the large snow fall 10 days ago, providing a fair amount of variety to the skiing.

Sunny spells are forecast for the rest of the week, with the temperature hovering just above freezing. However the north-facing slopes and the height of the resort with glacial skiing ensure that the conditions here in Saas Fee will be some of the best to be had as we enter the late season.

With the avalanche risk down at 1/5 all of the world famous off piste zones to be found in Tignes and Val D’Isère are far more accessible at this stage in the season than they have been at any other point.

On piste conditions are holding beautifully well. The south facing slopes tend to be very hard early morning, softening throughout the day. These are best to be attempted at around elevenses. The north and particularly west facing slopes are staying in fantastic condition throughout the day with the best snow in the whole resort to be found on these slopes. All pistes down to the Grande Motte glacier are skiing particularly well from 3,456m down to resort level at 2,100m.
