It’s just December, and we’ve already had two powder alerts. Snow records are being shattered in many places, and the scenes from the Alps (and beyond) are delightful. It’s almost unbelievable how good the conditions are.
Records
In many places, snow records are being broken for this time of the year. For example, in the Ecrins in France, at an altitude of 2900 meters, never before has so much snow been measured on December 2 since measurements began in 1983. Similar records are being broken in multiple locations. This means not only is skiing already excellent (be cautious of avalanche danger), but we have a solid base to start with. And as we all know, a good start is half the battle! This is going to be an outstanding winter!
Beautiful Images
Take a look at these pictures here. They are so beautiful you could almost taste the fresh powder! Who among you has been in the snow today? I look forward to seeing your images.
