I was skiing in La Rosiere 1850 (5kms away) last week and snow conditions were terrific we had 3 days of fresh snow. The sorms were pretty much across the entire French Alps so Ste Foy should have had similar conditions. Only downside was that temps rose later in the week and damaged a couple of the low lying runs. As to conditions in Ste Foy, I wouldn't know I haven't skiied there since the village was overun by development.

THis website gives information on st foy. There is also another good one, if you pm me I will let you know what it is. I think it is good on the very upper slopes, but hardly any lower down. But as St Foy is not very high in the village it does suffer from warmer temperateures, saying that it was -30C when I was there in January.

If you have a car you should be OK, Tignes and Val D are about a 30min drive away and if the lifts are open you can connect to Les Arc. Your St Foy pass will give you reduced ski price cost in these for one day each(?44 i think).

When it snowed lots when i was there (2 ft in one night!!) it was excellent skiing, powder all over the place. It is a quiet resort so the runs are brilliant. Hope you are not going for the nightlife though. Pm me and I can let you know some good restaurants.

Hope that helps, bit of a waffle for 'what is the snow like?'!!
