It's going to be another fun week in Morzine with lots of apres ski parties going on that you really shouldn't miss.

The Relentless Freeze Festival did exactly what it said on the tin and those not wearing their ski jackets could be found with teeth chattering, huddled around the vin chaud stand wrapping themselves in a fruity alcoholic blanket.

Murray Buchan a skier who grew up on the finger-snapping plastic of Edinburgh's Hillend made a choice to ski rather than play rugby and hopefully that choice will take hi to an Olympic medal.

Episode four of One Team to Sochi is out and it's all about the young lad from Bradford; Jamie Nicholls.

Les Gets bike park always opens a few weekends before the lifts are open full time for the summer season and this year's dates have just been announced.

We've technically only got one month to go until the lifts close and interseason descends on the Portes du Soleil. However before it does, we have an amazing month of fun and events ahead.

The weather thankfully held off long enough for yesterday's European whip off competition in Les Gets to take place and spectators were treated to huge air and lots of style as competitors battled it out for the prize money.

It seems like only yesterday that we were talking about snow sports, dump alerts and all things winter. Now, the weather is turning and we’re quickly heading towards summer and one of the busiest months in the Portes du Soleil calendar. The eyes of the world will fall on Morzine and Les Gets throughout June as some of the most prestigious sporting events head our way. It’s most definitely a month “not to be missed”.

Plenty of music, events and BBQ's to keep you in the summer mood.

Katie Summerhayes from Sheffield is back on snow for the first time since her ACL injury. She talks about the freeski scene to come out of Sheffield Ski Village and how Woodsy helped to push her when she started out on the European circuit.

It's been a great week in Morzine with the Tour de France arriving on Saturday but there's still plenty of things to see and do in Les Gets & Morzine in the week ahead..
