Les Carroz Snow Report
– 1999-2007 (8 year average)
|
|
Les Carroz and more
generally the Grand Massif (Flaine) has always benefited
from a superb snow record thanks to the microclimate
resulting from the proximity of Mont Blanc. Snow
cover on at least parts of the ski area is pretty
much guaranteed from mid-December until late April.
Here is the snow record data for Les Carroz. The first row shows the
week for which the measurement applies eg. February 3 is the
3rd week in February. Top slopes shows the average
snow cover in cm at the top of the ski area. Bottom
Slopes shows the average snow cover in cm at the
bottom of the ski area (this is generally where the
nursery pistes are
located). About 10 cm is generally enough to ski but
it very much depends on what’s below ie. grass or more rocky surface.
