Snow Report 18th March 2008

After long sunny spell in February snow has returned to Serre Chevalier with over 30cm falling in the last 10 days. More heavy falls are forecast this week for the Easter holiday and even more next week after the weekend. On top of the 215cm of snow already on the mountain it looks as if there will be plenty of snow right to the end of the season in mid April!
