In this Sainte-Foy snow report from 06 March 2026, I’m out in the backcountry of Sainte-Foy-Tarentaise in France to give you an on-the-ground sense of what the snow is doing right now. This is very much a conditions check from the mountains rather than a studio take—what it feels like underfoot, what’s skiable, and what you should be thinking about if you’re planning a ski tour in the area. If you want the full story behind this trip—how the touring went, what we found, and the wider context around the week—then I’ve shared a lot more in Episode 307 of The Ski Podcast. You can find that at theskipodcast.com or wherever you get your podcasts. This video is the quick, practical snapshot; the podcast episode is where I go deeper into the trip details.
