An amazing week for snow this week
The snow just kept coming this week, with persistent snow but high winds on occasion too causing some of the lifts to close.
With all the new snow there has been a higher risk of avalanches, with one big slide in Mont Chery yesterday. Don't ride off piste unless you know what you are doing, have the relevant knowledge and equipment and always tell people where you are going and when you'll be due back. Or just go with a guide!
