re: snowing now in pamps

Was out in Pamps on Frid30 and was told on good authority that the season will start on 8 December this year as its the students holiday w/end. Also 186 snow cannons have been installed on the slopes and resevoir is full. Can anyone else confirm this ?

re: snowing now in pamps

118 snow cannons will be fully operational according to the head of the ski school i spoke with him yesterday

re: snowing now in pamps

they are in place now and will be turned on after 15th Dec, obviously they are temperature sensitive and will not operate until the temp drops to below 1 degree , i will check this and let you know

Does this mean then that when I come on 2 Jan there will definitely be snow good enough to ski on. This is the only thing that is stopping me booking now and not waiting until December to see if there is enough snow to ski.

Diane, no one can say for sure it all depends on the weather and how cold it is, but there is a good chance there will be snow there at this time..........

re: snowing now in pamps

Nigel, I can confirm that the way it was told (by good authority) was that there would be 180 snow cannons this year, the resort will be operating for students for the weekend of 8 December but the season will start properly at Xmas for tourists etc

hi,

the slopes wont be open as early as the 8 dec,the bars and restaurants will be open though for the student party, my best friend is the head of the ski school who went to buy these cannons from Austria, i have no idea where people think that there are so many cannons from, they didnt even purchase that many as i say 118 will work this season
