im an italian kid, i go every year to sauze for ski!!! thats amazing❤
Literally just arrived in Lyon (17:00 27th Jan) en route to Montgenevre then to Sauze......many thanks for the shout-out.....'go on Wakey' 😂😂 love it....if you see a bright yellow VW T5., give us a wave...
The links were not open and couldn't be because of the wind even locals at the hire centres were left wondering why. There was no wind at all Tuesday !! and the bowl was closed the links too , funny that they suddenly open at the weekend , when the wind has been no lighter. Our group has been going to Sauze for many years and we have made the decision not to go any more its just not good value when there is only a couple of runs open and have to get taxis to other parts of the ski area . No refunds on the life pass either. Horribly icy in Sauze because of the rain early in the week and temperature hit a high on Friday of 24 Celsius in the town. I think it's unfair that you're not a bit more honest about these reports to set peoples expectations before they arrive and so they can make plans to visit other areas like Sestriere that had all of the lifts open and was in fact good skiing.
The very reason we stopped going to the Milky Way. Love the area but if it’s not open why bother going!!!
"Links shut, icy conditions, patches appearing" this was all mentioned in the video so I'm not sure why you're insinuating that we're hiding anything. We filmed the report on Friday when conditions were a lot better. We can only report how we find it. If you have non typical winter conditions then you have to expect variable piste conditions. Also we spoke to many people that week who despite the conditions had a great time. I accept that not everyone did and there was frustration with the links being shut. We are not going to engage in speculation or conspiracy theories as to why the links were shut. Vialattea said it was gusting at the top of Fraiteve so that was the reason they were shut. The same week Cervinia had 1 lift open so it's not just here that suffered. I think judging by our email inbox we are setting expectations as many people are requesting information on how to get to Montgenevre or Sestriere. We will continue to report it as we find it as that's all we can do.
@@Sauzeonline James, your reports are much appreciated and looked forward to every Friday. The problem is whoever is running Sauze d’Oulx doesn’t seem to value the end user. So many years I’ve been and hardly any investment in infrastructure. It seems they close runs mid week when tourist want to use the slopes but then open them all at the weekends for the locals. Is this just trying to save on running costs? Why are the links closed at the slightest puff of wind? That’s just an excuse to save money midweek. How can the Monty slopes stay open with the same wind/weather? It looks like this years conditions are poor, very poor everywhere. I’m in Andorra at the moment and I’ve never seen such warm temperatures and thaw/freeze conditions…..horrible, and no more snow forecast for the next 2 weeks !! You have a business to run promoting Sauze so it’s in your interests to paint a rosey picture, understood. My perception is visiting tourist/skiers love Sauze (and your reports) but hate the way it is being managed and run. Looking forward to your report this Friday 😊
Hi James,
Just want to say a huge thank you! We Skied to Montgenevre last week and you booked us a cab much appreciated under George Thorp on Monday 22nd. Montgenevre was just incredible highly recommend anyone to go and experience it.
Epic week great skiing and love the videos keep it up! The ski hire at the bottom of clotes was brilliant through Sauze Online as well! We will be back!
Thanks Jake.
Thanks Jake. Glad you had a great time. See you next year.
Hi James, for the beer afficionados that are not keen on lager, you can get German weissbier (I think thats how you spell it) in many of the bars both on the hill and in town and........ along with the sunniest smile in Sauze you can get a Dunkle (dark and very tasty beer) in Bar Clotes. Cheeeers!
Question for Sinead for chairlift chitchat - would you rather fight 1 James sized Duck, or 10 duck sized James’?
Anyone new to Sauze skiing and boarding in San Sicario is really nice and you can ski board half way to Sestriere and catch little gondola back up or into Sestriere..Sosta bar on slopes,at Sauze great at end of day next to slope in sunshine
i've just come back to UK from Sestriere, snow is melting quickly, I was there for a week and big difference from Day 1 to Day 5. Still a very enjoyable time, but hard to tell how it will be in a couple of weeks time if these temperatures continue
Hi both Shout Out please to THE Kendal Crew , Theis Family, Whiteheads,Websters & Tamblins..really looking forward to returning to Sauze. We arrive on the 4th feb for a week 😊
Must say I’m very worried about the snow, we’re heading to Sauze in week 11 and with this pace there’s likely not going to be any snow left by then 😅
Me as well…. Heading to pragelato Feb 3rd and with the current forecast I can’t help but feel I’ll be skiing on limited snow and ice…
I'm out there at the start of March.....probably not worth travelling out there 😅
We've just returned today from Sauze d'Olux. We had a fantastic week but snow conditions were very poor on our last day (Saturday 27th Jan). Most runs were very icy throughout (hard pack ice) and challenging for even the most experienced skiers. Not sure if this snow report is reflective of the true situation...
The snow report was done on Friday.
Hi! I’m due to go out on Sunday. Any updates on how conditions are? Thanks
Hi all, we are flying into turin on 15 feb. Can everyone please let me know their honest opinion on whether to come to sauze or somewhere else ? We will definitely be flying into turin on 15th, so if sauze isnt great any recommendations be good
The Wally’s (Mark Doobie and Syd) are coming out on the 11th Feb, we will look out for you and say Hello from Bristol.
Hello!! Awesome videos! Can we please get a shout-out? We are arriving on Friday 9th of February and staying in Sauze! We are Margherita and Ken from Amsterdam, and Carlotta and Leandro from London 🤩🤩
Hi both, we are coming out on the 4th, group of 5 of us, could we have a shout out please, Teti, Stu, den, Wayne and Lynda. Also is the Moncrons side going to be open, thank you and see you soon! X x😊
Can we also get a report on the snow park there?
thanks Jonas - we will try to fit that in on this week's report
Hello in Sauze where can I get my daughters bindings set up for her new boots and also where can I get my edges tuned? Look forward to meeting you on Tuesday. Mike and Charlie, coming out week of the 4th
Aren't the tea lift running just beside the colo chairlift only open in the weekend as well? Because that was the case last year, when i went to Sauze... only open in week days. Thanks in advance, Albert from Copenhagen.
Hi Albert, the button lift in the bowl (Rio Nero) only opens at weekends as it there to alleviate the queues at the 2 man. There's no need for it to run during the week.
@@Sauzeonline fair enough. That sucks, since i enjoy riding Rio Nero, because it takes you even higher up the mountains compared to colo.
@@NordicRail actually Colo is the highest point. Black 25 is the top of the Rio Nero drag so you still have access to the same area.
I thought the standard 6-day pass only included 1 day in Montgenèvre, but you mentioned 2 in the report. Am I wrong?
According to Via Lattea website, "Vialattea and Montiluna ski passes from 6 to 15 days have two Montgenèvre extensions included in the chip."
From last season the 6 day Vialattea ski pass includes 2 days in Montgenevre :-)
Shout out please for dad/lad combo from Bristol coming to sauze in half term.Nick and josh. PS do you have an opinion on snowblades as I can't wait to try mine out... but which piste?
Hi guys, what are the drone laws in Italy. Can you fly in resort without having ski patrol come after you.
No, I am afraid not.
Any more snow in the outlook before the 25th February when we arrive?
I really hope so, we arrive then too 🤞🏻
long term forecast suggests a change around the 9/10 Feb - fingers crossed! :-)
@@Sinead-sauzeonline fingers, toes and anything else that crosses 😀
I've been in sauze all week higher runs just ok but hard in the morning lower runs getting very icy
Get over to montenevre far more snow and most pistes and lifts open
Steve
Bournemouth
Hey, thanks for the info Steve. I have a booking for Sauze for 15th feb but could change it for montenevre. Is it much better, would you recommend me to change accomodation ?
Definitely the tour operators were putting on extra trips to France because demand was so high. Snow conditions in sauze last week were poor. A significant number of runs were closed. All the pistes and lifts open in France
Forget your skis and bring ice skates! Worst conditions I have ever seen.
Will the big swimming pool/gym complex be open in sestrierre in the next month or so, website says it’s closed which I’m surprised about
Pool looked open today.
We’ve booked for the end of feb and worried there won’t be anything there. Have we made a mistake booking here?
the long term forecast shows a change in the weather coming around 9/10 Feb - let's hope that arrives. It can all change so quickly in the mountains and end of Feb is still a few weeks away :-)
Heading out to Sauze on the 4th... might be a daft question but are the bars in Sauze card friendly, or should I be bringing cash? Thanks.
Just returned from Sauze and they are all card friendly.
@@angelahaydock7599 Perfect thanks!
Some places do prefer cash but as Anglea said (thanks Angela) they mostly all take card payments :-)
Card friendly but we ended up getting a few euros off here and there paying cash!
@@ethancain4743 how did you find the snow ? Would you recommend going currently ?
Coming tomorrow, I have big concerns about snow conditions for the next week. You think there would be enough snow to last the week?
Doubtful, I'm in Sestriere now, conditions are very poor, Sauze today not great either. Icy hard packed crap really
@@noksucowboy How is the alpine? Any better? I’ll be arriving next Saturday Feb 3rd. Worried about the how the conditions will look after a week of sun…. A bad day on the mountain still beats a day at work I guess.
@@hellogrivo yea that's the attitude, got a bit of a shock arriving yesterday but at resort it wasn't so bad, skiing today was actually ok, some of the shaded sides had kept more snow, was a bit easier to ski on, but the sunnier sides definitely weren't the best, very hard, compacted and icy enough. What can you do, I'm still going to enjoy the week, like you said, better than a day at work
although a little icy in places first thing I really enjoyed skiing in Sauze yesterday.
There are still some
Great runs in sauzend oulx we discovered today. Although very icy
Looks a sheet of ice that place. Not for me.
It's awful
