How much snow?

People keep asking how much snow there really is - well to give you an idea here is a series of photos taken looking at our terrace here in Bozel at 850m above sea level:

Mmmm, summer:


Good early snowfall:


Wow!


Snowmageddon!


Now its fair to say that on an average winter you can ski down to Bozel for a good 3 months, and there are cross-country tracks down here which normally are good until late-March but this year is exceptional so far.
