Les Deux Alpes Snow Report – 2001-2011 (10 year
average)
|
|
Les Deux Alpes has always benefited from a superb
snow record thanks to the sheer altitude of its ski
area and its massive glacier. Snow cover on at least
parts of the ski area is always guaranteed from early
December until late April. In fact you can still ski
there on the glacier in August (see our Summer skiing
section if this is of interest). Here is the snow
record data for Les 2 Alpes. 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
although in Les Deux Alpes there are nursery
slopes at the very bottom, at intermediate level and
on the glacier). About 10 cm is generally enough to
ski but it very much depends on what’s below
ie. grass or more rocky surface.
