The weather is changing and is little less beautiful. More clouds that cover the sunshine. That good for the snow, but less good for the terraces of the restaurants.

The temperature is still unchanged, but the humidity is much higher. There is lot of very good snow on the higher pistes in Mottaret, but hardly nobody is using it.

The beautiful weather continues. 

Due to the high temperatures of the last week there is hardly no snow left below 1800 meter. On most pistes there is enough snow for the coming Eastern week.

At the end of the day the lower pistes are worn out. Slush and brown spots are common on these pistes.

The same beautiful weather is before.

Around noon the red piste David Douillet is at its best. This piste is groomed every night and is nearly without any moguls. It hard to believe that nobody make use of this piste during that time.

This Friday is for many tourists the end of a beautiful spring week with all days 100% sunshine and good skiing conditions during several hours a day.

On several places off pistes there is much soft snow with a thin frozen toplayer left. Skiing there gives the horrible sound of cracking ice.

Everything unchanged, only some snow less! 

Perfect soft spring snow on the well prepared black run Face in Méribel. Kate and William are here, but we did not see them.

Again a wonderful day. 

After 11.00 all pistes in Les Menuires, like the Becca, Pezolet, Granges, were

in good shape with nice soft snow. Only lower pistes are slushy during most time of the day.

The weather is unchanged, only today no cumulus clouds. This sort of weather is perfect for sunbathing but perhaps not so good for the snow conditions on the piste. The snow is going to transform too fast into water. The high pressure all over western Europe is moving westward and some cold from the east is coming. And moreover there is enough snow for the rest of the season.

The sun keeps shining and so again a beautiful day. Last night the temperature was below zero. During early morning the well prepared pistes were frozen and looked like corduroy.

At the end of the morning the pistes were soft again. The higher pistes in Val Thorens were this afternoon very pleasant.

This beautiful day of only 23 hours is over.

The melting snow on the tops of the mountains gives a unique, glooming, but hard to describe, sighting. The large cumulus clouds of yesterday were present also on this day. They were even bigger and the end of the afternoon they produced during a short period some light snow and hail, that does not exist for long at 2000 meter.

A beautiful sunny day with a lot of big cumulus clouds in the sky.

Skiracing for youngsters on the pistes of the SnowPark BK in Les Menuires

Most of the the pistes stayed a long time very good because of the lack of skiers on this quiet Saturday.

The temperature was not too high and after the daily treatment, after five o’clock of the piste, it will be good skiing again tomorrow.
