Poster: A snowHead
|
Right, intermediate skier with beginner g/f (just finished a set of lessons stopping her from killing half the mountain)
Would like somewhere with a large and varied ski area to fulfill the beginner - intermediate red/black run needs..
Good social but not mental nightlife
Picturesque/winter-wonderlandy feel to it with good snow in the village..
Preferably in Europe..
Previously done Finland and Whistler and wondered if the above criteria was meet-able..?
Fussy B*****d i know but hey..
Cheers snow peeps....

how many of us guys have read the first 6 words and laughed ?
on a serious note i did my first trip after similar experience in Les Arcs 2000
did a week with ski school and loved it, plenty of nice blues suitable for the first week, reds and blacks for you too
Mornings spent in ski school would also allow you to have a good blast around and spend the afternoons with your lady.
Actually, we're going back there next year on Jan 8th

W4tto, One strong possibility would be Ellmau/Going, in the Ski Welt area of Austria.
The experienced skier has nearly 300Km of piste to play on - lots of reds, not very many blacks (but a few), while there are a reasonable number of blue runs both up the top and to get back down - with a fast funicular as the main lift out from teh village.
You will usually find snow down to village level - with a fair amount of cross country skiing in the valley if that takes your fancy.
And a fairly picturesque pair of villages, although there are better.
Soll has a reputation for a better nightlife, but I don't know what the village looks like, or what the access to the mountain is like, since I've only skied fairly high above Soll.

W4tto, I think what jasongibson100 meant was that you should both go to ski school.
