Major Snowstorm Hits Australian Ski Slopes
A major storm is bringing big snow accumulations to Australia. Resorts in New South Wales and Victoria have reported up to half a metre of snowfall over the past few days, and those totals may almost double by the ends of the weekend. The heavy snowfall, at times accompanied by strong winds, is the first major dump in the country since the season got underway five weeks ago. https://www.facebook.com/FallsAustralia/videos/486383178788448/ It follows good pre-season snowfalls at the end of May and in early June which led four areas to open up to a fortnight earlier than planned for the season. There was a warm spell in early June however followed by mostly cold, clear conditions until now. Perisher 12 July 2019

I have now spent 4 winter seasons in Les Contamines. It is a great place if you want to enjoy fresh powder. You can find some awesome runs without even having to hike your legs of. Of course, if you do like to climb for an hour or so, I can guarantee that you will find runs that are absolutely incredible. A large part of the resort faces north and the valley is known for getting big amounts of snow, so the chances of you getting some powpow are fairly high. If you prefer sticking to the groomed terrain, you won't be disappointed neither. Both challenging and more mellow slopes are there to be shreded. The resort does require some discovering, even after 4 years I keep on finding new spots which always blow my mind. Try to go there when you have some fresh snow, as you might have guessed by now, the free-riding is simply awesome.
