Skiers and snowboarders can get a heads-up on weather conditions by visiting the site
A website which offers snow forecasts has been improved to help ski enthusiasts plan and prepare for holidays in the Alps.
The Ski Club site has launched updated snow and weather pages that make it easier to track and compare the snow - something which is as essential as sports travel insurance for those hitting the slopes.
Skiers can now use a snow comparison tool to compare data between resorts and use historical reports to track the amount of snow as far back as 18 seasons.
The webcam pages have been updated to make them easier to use, allowing people to have a real-time view of each resort's conditions.
Web developers also separated the weather section into its own area, and detailed forecasts are featured across the pages - making it quicker and easier to track the snow.
