I travel by train when I can, it's got nothing to do with me being an all round good egg and everything to do with wanting to squeeze 8 days skiing into a weeks holiday! It's definitely doesn't have anything to do with wanting to reduce the size of my carbon footprint.

I've skied in early December most seasons in the last decade or so, this is a normal start. December is the month of the snowstorm, I've seen similar snowfall on several occasions.

Unfortunately fatalities at the start of the season are all too common too, seen a few near misses too.

I just hope it keeps coming throughout the season, a good start by no means ensures a good season.

Snow at the start of the season always fills us with excitment, but unless resorts continue to recieve
regular top ups of the white stuff conditions throughout the season will be average

Being lovely does not make you nice, however I do possess both qualities -)

Well CEO of a travel comapny is not exactly a meteorologist, so he can't make any predictions. It looks good so far, and those who booked for Christmas have nothing to worry about. Epic season? I'll tell you in May. P.S. Gentianes were tall this summer so I am keeping fingers crossed:)
