Log in to snowHeads to make it MUCH better! Registration's totally free, of course, and makes snowHeads easier to use and to understand, gives better searching, filtering etc. as well as access to 'members only' forums, discounts and deals that U don't even know exist as a 'guest' user. (btw. 50,000+ snowHeads already know all this, making snowHeads the biggest, most active community of snow-heads in the UK, so you'll be in good company)..... When you register, you get our free weekly(-ish) snow report by email. It's rather good and not made up by tourist offices (or people that love the tourist office and want to marry it either)... We don't share your email address with anyone and we never send out any of those cheesy 'message from our partners' emails either. Anyway, snowHeads really is MUCH better when you're logged in - not least because you get to post your own messages complaining about things that annoy you like perhaps this banner which, incidentally, disappears when you log in :-)

Skied there in '99 for a day while staying in Vail - from what I remember (the day we skied there visibility was poor) most if not all of the skiing isw above the tree line and more advanced/expert focussed than many of the surrounding resorts. I dont rmember there being much at the base area. Definately worth a trip if you are staying at Vail/Breckenridge/Keystone, but not somewhere I would choose to base myself.

The time that I visited A-basin in March a year or so ago, there had been a series of sunny days without much snow. A-basin was icy moguls and crust as they do little piste bashing due to the nature of the ski area (low cost/minimum expense). This should not be a problem in warmer weather when the sun will soften the crust. Used a lot by locals.

A friend who skiied there said you could get stoned in the car park just by breathing the air Cool
