Many ski resorts in Europe enjoyed huge amounts of new snow over the past weekend, which is fantastic timing for the February holidays which are coming soon! We've collated some images and a few short videos below to highlight the best of the new snowfall.
First up, a Val d'Isère chairlift ride: "This photo taken from the La Daille chairlift reveals the intensity of the snowfall we had today in Val d'Isère. As of 2250 tonight it is still snowing and expected to continue into the early morning. These intrepid skiers got this snowy in the 6 minutes it takes to get up the chair", said Henry's Avalanche Talk.

The view this morning from L'Aiguille du Midi in Chamonix, with a couple of lone skiers hiking their way to the top. Stunning!
