Pamps Webcam true??

Hi ya all. Off to Pamps on 20 Jan and considering trying to change resort due to lack of snow. Does anyone who has just returned know if the webcam on this sight (the one with the nice green grass Crying) is a true reflection of the current situation? Thanks for ya time in replying..

The snow (maybe heavy) is due to arrive between 22 -26 January which will change everything. Razz

Hi
Just returned from Pamp. They have had no new falls during the last week so they were struggling with ice. I was told by our instructor that snow was expected around the 20th. There was enough to ski on but beginers were finding the ice and patches of wear difficult to deal with. Hope this helps

Your ski instructor is right, the snow is due to arrive around the 22nd January. Very Happy

The ski centre guys there are doing their best to keep the resort functioning.

If you are a beginner the snow situation as it stands may be good enough - put it this way I had never skiied in anger before last saturday and by the 5 & 6th day we were bombing down the red ...
