Is this the never ending winter?

The lifts may have shut and the pistes been claimed back by the cows, but photos are flooding in to social media of snowy scenes across French ski resorts this week. Whilst snow in May and June is not unheard of, it certainly is rare and must be confusing the Alpine livestock no end!

Check out these recent photos of the mountains under a blanket of most unseasonable snow.

Here at The Hive we're just hoping that the sun comes out in time for our chalet cookery courses starting in June... Fingers crossed!
