Panda Eyes


It’s been a funny weather week. We’ve had the full spectrum; snow, rain and shine.

It last snowed on Wednesday and has been sunny since, with not one cloud in the sky.

It’s the first time this season guests have left with great big goggle tan lines.

With the weather forecast set for sun all week I think there’ll be a few more Pandas wandering around resort this week too.

More Snow on perfect pistes.


This season has been fantastic so faqr. I don't think we have had a week yet with out at least one blue skied powder day.

Last week it started to rain in Morzine. Doom and gloom spreaded like wild fire. According to the lady in our bakery: "Winter was now over".

Well as per usual 12hours later the freezing level dropped to 800m and snow started to fall. Yesterday we had 5cm in Morzie and 20cm at the top.

The best thing about this recent snow fall was timing. It started to snow around midnight. This meant that all of the pistes had already been bashed.

So what?

This means that a lovely new layer of powder fell on top of perfectly flat runs. The next morning was one of fresh tracks in the knowledge that there were no hidden bumps or rocks to spoil your fun. Gorgeous.
