Snow Report 7/12/22
Ok so winter has arrived and with it the snow and very cold weather here in La Plagne. Regular snowfall is in the forecast and the accumulation of snow continues.
After a good snowfall on Sunday we have a top snow depth of around 70cm at the glacier and at resort level around 30cm. The next snow, around 11cm is currently reported for Friday and then light snowfall for a few days. The freeze thaw conditions for the next week range from a maximum of -2°C and down to a minimum of -17°C by Sunday night.
It’s exciting to see the resorts all white again, the town getting ready for the season and restaurants and shops beginning to open in readiness for the opening of La Plagne this weekend the 10th December.
There's quite a mix of snow quality out there, soft and powdery on the high north facing slopes but where it's windy the snow is a little hard and icy. The latest snowfall was below 1500m and as it is so cold out there the snow cannons can be run
Take care out there as some lower areas only have thin snow cover and you could encounter rocks and dips.
