Its been snowing!!!!Yesterday and today we have had snow which is supposed to continue until tomorrow.We have just come back from skiing and we have probably had about 6" up at the top. Jonny, Karl and I have just skied the black run from the Top of the Augile Rouge down to the carpark in Villaroger(7km) non-stop. It was in good condition all the way down and not too busy.Its supposed to be the longest black in Europe.
We have just finished a great week with Fran,Marina,Sally,Kate and Liz, the girls from Yorkshire. We skied them all over, I think they surprised themselves. We skied down into Italy one day and found a brilliant restaurant we had been recommended.Included in the price was wine too, so we all felt it would be rude not have a glass or two or three, as it seemed never ending. We then had to ski all the way back, which Karl and Jonny thought we did a bit quicker due to the girls alcohol fueled lunch!!!!!Everyone had a great day and it was sunshine all the way. This is a picture of the girls half way down the Italy side.

Our next guests arrive this evening, with more on Saturday and Monday.Its half term week so the slopes will be busier this week.We very rarely have any queues here so I hope it doesn't happen this week. Bye for now.

We've just had a great week with Chris and the boys from Warickshire, thanks lads and hope you all got back safe!!
Karl, Jonnys friend is still with us and helping us out for the next 4 weeks. He is the only person who quality controls the boiled eggs in a morning, one for you, one for me.Its good having him around and certainly makes things easier for Jonny and me.
Pistes are still in great condition although we have had a bit of wind during the last 2 days. Temperatures have warmed up a little which is a sign snow is on its way.Jonny and Anneha are skiing as I speak.Im looking after Ffi.
We've just said goodbye to Sal and Peter who came out last year to see us. Hope to see you again soon.We now have 6 lads from Sheffield who seem really nice. They arrived last night and had a few drinks with Michelle in LaFerme(or should I say Mutzigs)We all ate dinner and then went down to Le Monal where there was a band playing. It was a good evening.

Its Snowing!!!It started this morning as we were on the first lift out of Villaroger and has continued all day getting heavier. By mid afternoon all the pistes were well covered and we had a great ski back.
Up until today we have had blue skies and sun. Its been lovely but we are all happy to see the snow.

Our guests are all getting in to the swing of things, using the hot tub daily and visiting la ferme after skiing. They love the Mutzig beer and Michelle(the owner) is looking after them with the crisps and nuts.We have met another mountain guide who lives now in Villaroger. He was originally in Val'D Isere. He is keen to get any experienced skiers doing a little ski touring and having a day out off piste. We hope we can work with him this season as he seems really nice.

We are out skiing again tomorrow, today we skied with the guests. We will take Anneha out Wednesday afternoon as it is her half day.Ffi will maybe have a sledge depending on the weather.
Will close for now as need to start dinner.
