Video Reports from Les 2 Alpes

Looks like these guys have had a great week, spending time in Les Deux Alpes & Alpe d'Huez.. check out their best bits from over 16 hours of footage (I wouldn't have wanted to try & edit all that!)

Rod's been over to La Grave in today's snow report. The snow isn't too bad over there but there are a lot of crevasses still visible.

Conditions up on the glacier remain good, with the piste crews keeping the lower runs into resort in good condition. We could still do with some more snow though, so keep doing those snow dances!

Conditions up on the glacier are great, powder everywhere which not many people seem to be skiing!

The glacier has stayed closed today to high winds. There's been plenty of snow up top but rain down at resort level.

Temperatures should warm up today & tomorrow with a little bit of snow later today & tomorrow, returning to blue skies again after that.

Snow conditions are still really good after last week. It's been busy but fresh snow has still come to resort and the off piste areas have been realatively untouched.

Conditions remain the same in Les 2 Alpes at the moment, but there is a little snow due on the forecasts later this week.

Conditions are good and we're all waiting for the lifts to open. Find out how to buy your lift passes online and take a look at the events calendar so far for this season. 

Conditions high up are still good, and with no fresh snow on the forecast the high altitude pistes are the place to be.

Great snow conditions across the 2 Alpes area, especially compared to other parts of the Alps, for example in Italy, where they have been making snow.

Lifts opened this weekend and conditions are good with around half of the lifts open. We could do with some more snow, which thankfully looks like it's due this week. 

This new blue piste has been talked about for quite a while, and tonnes of digging work has been going on all winter. Take a look at the fly-through. The piste will be accessible from December 2015 with the official inauguration taking place on 13th January 2016.

The teams have been out on the mountain getting everything ready for you in the park this winter. Read more about the snowparks in 2Alpes which are open in summer and winter. 

The best of the skiing this week will be in the morning, up on the glacier. The Valley Blanche area is still yet to fully open so we could do with some more snow for that to happen. 

Take a look at some of the work that goes on behind the scenes in 2 Alpes each winter.. LOTS of work, to keep you safe and enjoying your time in resort. 

This one goes a bit Benny Hill in the middle.. but it look like everyone came away relatively unscathed..

This is a nice little mellow edit we thought we'd share from Dimitri Vinois on youtube.. the calm before the impending snow storm dumps all over 2 Alpes & everyone goes wild in the powder!

It was so cold in Les 2 Alpes this week that the glacier had to close. Temperatures of around -35 were recorded which meant that the lifts and workers couldn't operate up there. 

As always at this time of year, timing your skiing is crucial to get the best of the conditions. Up on the glacier of course it's still winter snow, but lower down is starting to feel more springlike in the afternoons.

The Rusty Toothbrush Crew are back with their latest episode.. you're gonna love it!

Thibaud Duchosal has created this educational video with in partnership with the Ministry of Youth, Sports and Community Life, ANENA association and Les Arcs.

We've had lots of snow across the alps in the last week, which is great news for anyone heading to Les 2 Alpes between now and the end of the season.

These guys look like they've had a great time in 2 Alpes.. there's a lot of falling over (everyone needs to start somewhere!) watch out for the caterpillars, head stand and some good park action!

Rod from BASS is back with a review of current conditions in Les Deux Alpes.

Bad visibility on Sunday but forecast for better today and colder temperatures during the week to keep the snow in great condition.

The snow has been great over the past week here in Les 2 Alpes.

Happy New Year from BASS Les 2 Alpes!

"Tropical" conditions in 2 Alpes this week!

This week has been pretty sunny, but worry not there is snow due at around 2,000 metres and another dump predicted in the middle of the week next week.

We have spring conditions on the lower slopes in L2A. The red run into resort has shut, but both of the black runs are still open. Snow cover on the Diable is thin, but the Valentine is fine; hard snow in the morning, with nice spring snow in the afternoon.

A nice little edit from the boys at Freestyle Land - Deux Alpes' very own snow park. Been inspired by the Olympics yesterday? Get jumping!

These guys have definitely been making the most of the Toussaint holidays in Les 2 Alpes.. both on and off the mountain! :-)

These guys are making the most of the lack of snow low down in Venosc to test out the trails down there.. well why not!? Looks like great fun to us, and with the summer season not officially starting until 21st June it would be rude not to dust the bikes off!

Climbing mountains is great fun, but not as much fun as it looks like these guys were having when they jumped off the Doigt de Dieu on the southern slopes of the edges of the Meije, and flew back down to earth...!

These guys really know how to rip it up in the park! Enjoy.....

At the 2011 London Freeze at Battersea Power Station we spoke to Britain's top freeskier James Woods about the event, X-Games and the 2014 Olympics in Sochi Russia.

Les 2 Alpes attempted to break a new Guinness World Record for the largest number of people taking part in a torchlit descent this week, but sadly fell short by only around 200 people.

Take a look at the downhill trails in Venosc, which opens in April every year, just as the winter season closes

The Mountain Of Hell took place from 1 to 3 July 2016.

The 18th edition of the Mountain of Hell has just taken place and as you can see from this video by 4th place winner Fabien Cousinié, the visibility on the glacier was pretty poor, making for an interesting start to this year's race...

Thanks to Rudd Huffman for this edit of him and his mates in Les 2 Alpes.

Rod from the British Alpine Ski School has sent us this report to let you know how things are looking on the slopes in Deux Alpes.

Santa was on top form yesterday but it was quite hard work catching up to get those presents from him...!

Every year, when the lifts open, I rush excitedly to the top of the hill, strap into my board and set off for the first run of the new season. The cold, clear air in my nose and the sun on my cheeks I can't keep the smile off my face as the fresh snow creaks under my board. The whole day lies ahead from first lifts to last call. Or it would if I wasn't sweating, panting and massaging the cramp out of my calves at the end of the first run.

There's good snow cover in Les 2 Alpes at the moment, with the best conditions up on the glacier.

Mid morning to afternoon is the best time to get out skiing this week, either in La Grave or in Les 2 Alpes.

Rod's got some good tips if you're coming over here in the next week or more, on where to find the best snow.

We like this video.. not only does it show how good conditions are still up on the glacier & in the snow park, the music's pretty chilled too.. but it also shows why you should never stop on the blind side of a jump in the park.. that was a close call!

It's looking likely that we're going to have a mixed bag of weather this week, with snow clouds and sunshine mixed in.

Snow depths are currently around 40cm on the lower slopes with 160cm at the top of the glacier in 2 Alpes.

Rusty Toothbrush are the new masters of space and time, from the rediscovery of the ancient, forgotten art “ski-balet” to mind blowing encounters with 4 legged snowboarders the 4th episode of Les 2 Alpes WINTER WITHIN will have you laughing and confused for approximately 4:52min.

It's going to be a sunny week next week in Les 2 Alpes, perfect for a bit of spring skiing.
