How much snow for snowshoeing?

After the terrible snow barron season last year it is hard to believe that between Friday night & Saturday morning nearly a meter of snow fell in the Chamonix valley, the largest dump in one go since 1999.

Check out the amount of snow on this chalet roof as we Snowshoed past on Tuesday on our return to the valley after a tough day breaking trail above Megeve to the summit of Petit Croisse Baulet.
