Today’s Photo

Every weekday during winter, and occasionally the rest of the year

YSE Val d'Isère, 30 April 2024

Val d’Isère’s lifts and pistes close on Sunday. People ask why they don’t stay open longer when there’s always so much snow. These photos give the answer: two thirds of France are on holiday right now, yet there were three and a half skiers on Solaise this afternoon and a handful of snowboarders (probably on day release) on Bellevarde.
