Snow Report 28 January 2007
The weather is now much colder with between 30-50cm of snow in the Northern French Alps, Western Pyrenees and Hautes-Alps. Below 2000m there is little base and off-piste skiing is only sensible on grassy slopes or forest trails. The best powder is on north aspects between 2000-2500 meters with the snow wind blown in places higher up. The snowpack is unstable above 2400 m on north facing slopes and there have been some skier triggered avalanches.
