Chamonix Video Snow Report: 21st December 2015

Christmas week in Chamonix

Imprint
By Charlie Priestley, Updated

With a few more lifts and pistes opening up this weekend there was a little more to ski, but we're still in need of a top up of snow. Conditions at the top of Flegere were probably the best we found this weekend. Rumours are that Les Houches may close in a few days due to lack of snow but we'll keep you posted on that news.

A little more snow looks likely at around 3,000m today so the top of Grands Montets might be quite good tomorrow. Take a look at the detailed weather forecasts and the full events calendar for more of what's going on this week and next. As ever, take a look at the daily Live Lift status for which pistes and lifts are open.
