My brothers been sending photos for a daily sitrep and I'm following the Val D'Isere Instagram page. Looks okay. There is snow down but a few pistes are closed. I'm not too fussed, free trip. If I don't ski I'll be in the pub

Looking at the snow reports has been getting me down. I hope you have enough coverage to enjoy some time on the slopes mate.

It seems to me that we often get second-hand weather from the States, about two weeks after they experience it. So if that follows through then maybe there will be some pretty hefty snowfall later on.?
I don't really fancy going to America or Canada this season, so I'm going to sit on my hands & hope that I can book last minute somewhere in Europe straight after that "serious snow" has finished falling.
I can always hope.!

The coverage should be ok. My brothers team have been able to train everyday so it's not as bad as what's reported. It's always the negatives that get most coverage online/in the news so I'm being optimistic.

I got caught in a wind/rain/hail storm on the way back. It was a good job I've got good kit otherwise I would have been soaked.
