Default Pyrenees - great snow and 4 days skiing left (so there's just time)...

This season has certainly had its ups and downs but we've had little to
complain about at the tail-end. The Southern Alps have done particularly
well, and I'd have been off before now to Serre Che or Montgenèvre if I were
located closer (sigh).

However, it looks like conditions are still really good down in Piau-Engaly,
at 1800-2600m the highest of the ski areas in the French Pyrenées:

Bonus-time, then :0)

There's a lot of great ski-time lost due to the need to close a season
(staffing, etc.) while conditions often remain perfectly good. In Canada,
where snowfalls are truly Collossal, they say that 'people just stop coming,
and start to do other things...'
