Bring on the summer...
So the winter has finally come to an end after an
unseasonably cold end to the season.
There were a few really good dumps of snow at the end of April
and start of May which resulted in some fantastic end of season skiing on
extremely quiet slopes.
The snow has mostly receded and the resort is starting to
look green and summery once again as you can see from the Tignes le Lac webcam.
