A little blast around the pistes of Allevard. No real queues for the end of the holidays but quite a few kids groups on the slopes so quite busy. The snow is holding up quite well.

First alpine ski of the season. Absolutely nobody around so we managed to cover quite a bit of ground.

We decided to head up to the Collet d'Allevard for Christmas lunch and a couple of hours skiing. Really good conditions and plenty to do.

It was almost like end of season conditions. Snow cover is very thin.

First alpine ski of this season. Better than expected given the recent high altitude rain with soft snow and very little ice.

A short morning alpine ski, fairly relaxed trying some longer runs from top to bottom - 500 to 600 meters skiing as the lifts were running quickly and no-one was around.

A quick 2 hour ski between home work for a bit of fresh air. Very very cold. -6C at the car, probably more like -10C at the summit. Not too crowded, just some company groups.

Just to show I wasn't tired after the morning's ski de fond a little afternoon hooning around the pistes of Allevard. Not busy.

Allevard was fully open but not many people around, maybe the effect of Covid although suggestions that people were arriving today rather than Saturday for the holiday week. Not sure why.

It was slow going getting to the ski area this am and a big scrum for tickets. The lifts seemed to be opening and closing a bit randomly too.
