Best website for Snow Reports...
Jan 14, 2011 @ 10:40

I'm really disappointed with the "official" sites of the various ski resorts. They are really poorly designed, hard to find and often have completely useless information. I don't care about the damned restaurants nearby! I want to know:


1. What are the conditions like today and for the next 1-2 days?


2. What are the hours and tarifs?


3. How do I get there from here?


But most sites have this information hidden somewhere deep down.


Is there a good summary website that at least shows snow conditions for the various resorts? Kinda like cine.ch but for ski resorts.

These are two sites that I use and like.  The snow reports are not always 100% reliable but pretty good:


http://www.snow-forecast.com/


http://www.onthesnow.co.uk/

i keep my eyes on www.wepowder.com


it can get quite technical with the weather report, but it mainly tells you where to find good powder.


Also has regular updates from members up in the resorts itself, plus some good avalanche info

David forecasts are not very reliable especially for the mountains. I usually check the forecast and the webcams the day before and again in the morning before leaving. Webcams don't lie.

Guys - this may seem a stupid question but when you don't know your way around.... I have been ski-ing before but when you are new in Geneva where do you start? I can see Mont Blanc and the Jura mountains but where to go? I want to head off at weekends and stay overnight in a resort - are there deals on weekend ski-ing packages for one person? Do I just take a train / bus / drive to Chamonix or another resort and book a hotel on the web? What's your advice? Thanks! Ken
