Yes, but in 5 weeks time, you may be stuck in Zermatt with too much snow. I'm headed out in that general direction of Crested Butte end of January. Won't make it to CB this trip but Colorado is getting hit good and hard this week. Tahoe ski resorts were all closed on Sunday as well more because of the rain that fell on the 6-7 feet of snow they received earlier in the week. Been a season of polar opposites for Europe and USA so far.

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

Yes, but Zermatt is unlike anywhere in the US. The scenery knocks the socks off anything you'll see in Colorado IMO. I'm pretty sure the snow will be good by then also - 60cm forecast in the next few days

Typical American Ski Area
Relatively small area (CB) and like most severely over staffed (hence lift prices) & cannot get the area open after a Storm
Arlberg (St Anton, Lech & Zurs) over 1000 hectares of skiing & they still manage to get it open after a a storm

@stanton, LOL. Love it. what does 6 feet of snow translate to in cm? roughly 200 cm in a week. would have loved to see that last time I was in the Arlberg.

Tahoe basically shut for too much snow - knocked out the power grid in much of the basin so going to the movies not much of an alternative. Still ice-cream probably free in the supermarkets.

@stanton, Of course you'd be able to manage a 36 hour dump of over 300+cm of medium wet snow and 80 kph winds. No problem, right?
