Snow report 2012!!!
After a somewhat late start, all our European resorts experienced heavy snowfalls at the start of the year. Since then each day has seen increased sunshine and on Monday 16th Jan, all European resorts enjoyed bright blue sunny skies. Furthermore, the snowstorms left the pistes in excellent conditions where skiers have made the most of fresh powdery conditions. What's more, temperatures are largely below freezing which should keep the pistes in excellent shape. Some say “There’s enough snow to last till June!” Time to plan your end of season ski trip while there is still availability! Click here to see our offers.

A few weeks ago, I took a trip out to Bardonecchia in the Turin province of Italy to go get my snowboard fix for the summer, that’s the southern hemisphere summer. I don’t think it was long enough because I feel I didn’t satisfy my snowboard craving all that much it just made me consider moving to Italy. Anyway that aside Bardonecchia happens to be the home of an independent snowboard brand founded in Italy by real Italian snowboarders..
