Spring like skiing with plenty of snow on the way
We've been experiencing spring like conditions here in Alpe d'Huez with lots of sunshine, although a much needed top up of snow is coming our way from Monday/ Tuesday this week.
Forecasters are predicting the heaviest snow fall on Tuesday afternoon, followed by light snow and maybe even more dumping on Friday and Saturday. Let's hope so!
