Team report

Hello everyone

It’s winter! Cold weather on the slopes and frequent snow showers augur well for a great Christmas holidays with family and friends. It all starts now. Enjoy your favorite activity

We’ve had 3cm of snow at the base to 6cm or more at the summit in the last 24 hours.

Today, lifts II, IIo, IV and magic carpet will be servicing 8 trails with man made snow. Snowmaking continues to expand the ski area as quickly as possible.

Conditions: Some mechanical work has been done. The first runs will feature a layer of fresh snow, groomed granular snow and possibly mounds of man-made snow in places on firm to hard bases. This may vary throughout the day, depending on traffic. Possibility of opening other trails after inspection.

The chalet alt. 840 will be open as a refuge only, where you can take a break and warm up by the fireplace.

At 5 a.m. the temperature was -11 under light snow.

Alpine Touring is still not possible in the evening, as snowmaking and trail preparation will continue day and night. However, the good news is that the “East” trail is now open! Please note that as the return can only be made towards the sector of charilift II, plan to leave from the main chalet by the Acces (No56). Thank you for your cooperation.
