La Clusaz

Dids,
You are not alone. I have no idea what Ian is talking about :roll: :lol:

I am however, most impressed that you've managed to ski 6 times in April. I would have thought that was far too late in the season, but clearly I am totally wrong. I suppose if you pick the right resorts and accept that it will be 'spring' conditions it can be okay.

I - along with rather a lot of people - have skied in La Clusaz in April and it's usually a lot better covered than this season. Last time we did this we alternated Spring skiing with a bit of walking - blue skies, alpine flowers and sitting in the sun with a cold beer watching Eagles... what's not to like?

Spring in the mountains is great, and it's not that unusual to get powder snow on La Balme in April. So don't let this year put you off; just accept that you'll get what the weather decides to throw at you.
