The Michelin maps show times of closure of the passes because of snow, but is there a web site that shows more definitive information?

:shoot:
 
Not much help but.....

.... I had a similar dilema when travelling in early May this year. Didn't find any decent sites for the info really (the ski ones just referred to slopes). I'd heard stories of riders going at that time & being snowed in. My trip, however, was great - 1 blocked road that only went to a lake anyway. Saw plenty of snow though.

What time of year are you going?
You'll usually find someone who's just come back, or been at the time your thinking of going.
 
Thanks, hopefully in early June which is just when some might be or might not be open. A couple of years ago it was the same with the Col Du Galibier in the Alps, but the helpfull French have a web-site which shows the passes state. However beofre anyone asks no I can't remember that web-site!
