La Joue du Loup opens on 12 December 2026. The daily report (snow depths, open pistes and lifts) will appear here from opening day.

Measured snow history: not available for this resort. No Météo-France station close enough (the 3 nearby stations sit more than 300 m away from the altitude we aim for (1613 m)). We would rather show nothing than borrow a distant valley’s reading.

30 cm on the ground: the benchmark for groomed-piste skiing. Bar = monthly average depth; percentage = share of time above 30 cm.

  • Good skiing: 30 cm on more than 8 days in 10
  • Variable: 30 cm on 5 to 8 days in 10
  • Insufficient: 30 cm less than one day in two
Estimate from the ERA5-Land reanalysis (Open-Meteo), about 9 km grid at 1,455 m. Not a resort measurement: during the season the daily report prevails. The percentage is the share of time with at least 30 cm on the ground.
Why altitude matters. La Joue du Loup stretches from 1,500 m to 2,500 m: snow lies longest at the top of the ski area, which is why the two depths are reported separately.
