Morillon, Christmas 2004

2nd January 2005

Snow reports suggested it was all going to be a bit hit or miss this Christmas with only moderate falls of snow arriving pretty late. Fortunately with Christmas Day falling on a Saturday this year we got a few days skiing in before the masses arrived for their Christmas break.

The skiing was really quite good although from the links to Flaine didn’t open fully until the 27th December, in fact skiing over to Flaine showed why. There’s barely been sufficient snowfall to cover some of the fissures in the hillside over there and even at the top the snow level was too low to open this lift :

However, we did have a little more snow and by the 28th it was looking like this:

Which, if nothing else looks a lot better.
