Hi there,

Forget snowsports for two seconds - there really is nothing else on anybody's lips today except the sad death of Michael Jackson. Our favourite track? Beat it. And now back to snowsports - your regular news and gossip fix is as usual below.

** TIGNES GLACIER OPENS FOR SUMMER SKIING AND BOARDING **

Tignes glacierSkiing and snowboarding is possible every month of the year in Tignes, thanks to the Grande Motte glacier which has just opened for the summer season.

At a height of over 3000 metres, there's 20km of pistes and 12 lifts, plus the fabulous snowpark. Training camps are running throughout the summer, giving you the chance to learn from the pros, whether that be racing technique, park prowess or simply learning to ski or board.

When you're finished on the glacier, there are plenty of other Tignes activities to keep you occupied - mountain biking on over 90km of trails, endless water sports on the lake, beach soccer and beach volleyball, golf, tennis...And they're all FREE with the Sportignes card.

Visit www.tignes.net for more info and to book your summer break, or visit us with Natives on the Summer Weekender.
