It’s been a while since my last snow forecast blog due to a crazy Jan with “sNOwPARKING” and “OUR CAMP” freestyle weeks, heli boarding in Italy and various backcountry hiking powder missions- Blogs, Vids and Pics coming soon.
Anyway, what an epic start to Feb. It has now been snowing solidly for over 2 days all the way down to village level.
Woke up this morning to a fresh dump of 30+cm and the good news is that there is a sack full more to drop this week and temps are dropping to superminus figures.
Anyone out for the school hols is in for some truly brilliant conditions…

Here are the snow conditions here in Morzine and Avoriaz.. EPIC!!!
I have not seen so much snow fall in Morzine in such a short period of time.
Loads more snow is on the way with temps remaining very cold. Anyone that is coming out for a pre Xmas slide is in for a really good time.
Here’s a pic of the new rainbow rail in The Stash. It really is that big!!!
I am off for a slide in waist deep powder!

Well there has been dustings of new snow most evenings and the temperatures have been very cold. Snow cannons have been firing each night.
Still snow in Morzine village, and the lower Pleney slopes are still white. More snow is due to arrive throughout the coming week and temperatures will remain cold.
We had a day’s riding up in Avoriaz on Saturday and things are looking really good for an early opening next weekend, very good bases on all pistes and a good covering off piste but the larger rocks are still poking up to wreck new boards!!
Gratuitous photo time, taken whilst hiking the Arare the other week…

Fresh snow conditions in Morzine Avoriaz

With all the snow that arrived over the last few days we decided to drive up to Avoriaz and take a hike up the Arare and get as close to the peak of Les Hauts Forts as possible.
Within a couple of hours we were close to the peak but could not make it right to the top due to the risk of slides and sluffing snow. The walk was certainly worth it though as we got fresh tracks in thigh deep powder with blue skies all the way back down to the town.
There is so much snow in Morzine and Avoriaz and it is still snowing now. All the snow cannons are firing so it looks that we may be having an early start to the season.
If you want to make good use of the early snow we still have a few places left for pre Xmas Flexi Breaks w/c 14th Dec click here for more details.
The view from the halfway point. Still a way to go!!
Snowy tracks at the start of the hike
Beautiful mountain views.
