On Friday we did a little ski tour to the Col du Balme from Le Tour just to see what snow conditions were like higher up the valley. With beautiful blue skies it was quite a warm ascent to the Charmillion after which the more usual biting wind took play. Plenty of snow right down to the village with lots of additional cannon snow on the piste will ensure that Le Tour will be fully open next weekend. All the pistes have been groomed which made for an easy descent from the Balme.
Cold clear weather again today and this trend is set to continue for the next few days before the return of more snow by the end of the week.
