Our latest video report comes from PlanetSKI’s James Cove who is in Austria.
It’s looking good in the resort of Schlick 2000 near Innsbruck.
As James mentioned, over in La Plagne in France is our reporter, Simon Wilson.
“There is still plenty of snow at resort level in Belle Plagne,” said Simon.
“There is plenty of good piste skiing at 1,800m and above.
“Spring snow on north facing pistes, but it is slushy during the morning on more south facing slopes.
“The off-piste and ungroomed black pistes are challenging as snow has melted and refrozen.
“My first experience of the new Glaciers bubble from Roche de Mio up to 3,ooom which is a huge improvement over the old lift and significantly faster.
“Also I should add that pistes are empty, no lift queues at all,” added Simon.
“I know that was an issue in La Plagne just a week ago, but it seems like the school holiday crowds are well and truly gone with just a few Dutch student groups around.”
