Team report
Friday, March 20
It looks like it’s going to be a great day on the slopes. It’s the first day of the spring season, and the snow is still falling. So don’t worry—we still have excellent conditions and good weather ahead of us. It’s up to you to enjoy it
We received 2 to 4 cm of fresh snow overnight, and another 2 to 5 cm is expected throughout the day, with snowfall likely to continue overnight.
Lifts scheduled for today
IIo, II, IV, and the magic carpet will open at their regular times, allowing you to enjoy the thrill of skiing.
24 trails and a few glades are open.
Most are on a base of made snow with nearly complete snow cover.
The grooming teams are still on duty to provide the best possible skiing conditions. It’s up to you to go for a run
The trails will be covered with a nice layer of fresh snow, starting with granular snow on firm to hard bases.
On the few natural snow runs and glades, there is also a fresh snow track; skied surfaces with granular snow on firm bases, and a few thin or exposed spots will require caution.
Icy patches here and there are always possible and should be avoided
At 5 a.m., the temperature was -5°C under cloudy skies. Snow is expected later today and could be sticky and wet if the temperature rises
Chalet Altitude 400 (main chalet) and Altitude 840 are open with food and beverage service.
Alpine touring: Only the East alpine touring trail is open until further notice, and only recommanded for experts. See the trail map, schedules and link to purchase passes and tickets at montsutton.com/alpinetouring
