Ski season build up time, it's snowing all over the Alps and early winter ski season forecasts are looking good. We're excited to bring you the snow report from Courchevel this season as it happens

Here we are back for another season and eagerly awaiting the arrival of the winter ski season. It's getting colder in the resort with hard frosts now and we’re seeing good snowfall already across the Alps over about 1800metres. The high peaks are taking on that majestic freshly snow clad look once again.
