A couple of years ago the fence that goes around the TV tower (which is taller than me - I'm 6ft) was completely covered and at the bottom where the single man chair lift crossess over you had to duck down to avoid being hit by those on the cair lift - hows that for a start?

2005 early Feb had a great snowfall in Pamps, Locals I spoke to said it was the best snow they'd had for a long time. It was FAB

I know that fence, wow that's alot of snow !! just shows what can happen, how the hell do you ski when it's that deep ? i've only been to pamps once and that was this january so i've only seen the place with ice and hardly now snow, can you actually get out of the hotel door when it's that deep ?

re: WHAT'S THE DEEPEST YOU KNOW

It's compacted and groomed so no matter how deep it is you will be fine.

Just don't ski off the piested runs.
