Hot off the press from Johanna at Ice and Fire - the first snow is falling in Paradiski!
October marks the beginning of the snow season in the Alps, and with it comes the age-old debate about how good this winter will be for snowfall.
This year, the 2024-25 season is off to an impressive start, with a dusting of fresh snow already on view across the La Plagne glacier. The photo you see here, taken on October 6th, showcases the view from the new webcam perched atop the Bellecote Glacier.
Locals often believe that snowfall before the Demontagnee festival bodes well for the season ahead. This local festival, taking place on October 19th in Bourg St Maurice, celebrates the return of cows from their summer pastures in the highlands back down to the valley farms, where they will rest for the winter.
