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 :-)

Is there a place to ski in England?

Just wondering. I'm not familiar at all with your big Island. Do you guys have to travel to Europe or US to ski or is there a local place? Seems like it could be quite expensive to travel skiing 60 days a season!

Please fill me in . I am very interested to hear about this.

Also who wants to ship me a few bottlesd of full strength Absinthe since it is unattainable here in the US. You would make a profit. I would take care of you very well if such a favor was done for me. Oh nd I am a 27 year old male. So old enough to drink , LOL Laughing

huckingfellers, great post!

Yes, we're an advanced civilisation (up north there are even grown men who ski in kilts). Our major ski resorts are in Scotland, but some of us find Chamonix even better. How's the ice in Upstate NY these days?

My sister skis in Jiminy Peak, so any more mockery and I'll send her over to deal with you!

This website has a transatlantic Absinthe pipeline - you didn't know about it?

I know you are an advanced civilization up there Very Happy I was just curious if there is a place to ski in the UK. The ice is not bad at all here. Just on whiteface. Most of the winters we get nailed pretty good in the highpeaks region of the Adirondack park. In fact Jay Peak here in the East gets as much snow as some western resorts. But the snow is definately not of the quality in the Alps or of the Rockies.

No new nothing of the transatlantic Absinthe Pipe line Very Happy Is there a spiggot to fill from, LOL?

huckingfellers, did you know that Absinthe rots the brain? It's good to see no sign of that in your case, but what does your president drink?

Yes (ski geek hat on) we have 5 Scottish ski resorts, and some very obscure places in Northern England with ski lifts that no one's supposed to know about (use our search box and you'll discover a few very interesting things).

huckingfellers, you need to go to Prague and points south to get the true brain cell killer, it's illegal in most of Europe including UK. What you're buying in London is high alcohol %, but does not contain the wormwood distillate that screwed with so many of the Impressionist's minds.

Hi there, I recognise your name from the epicski forum.

Are you going to the either the Epicski Academy in 06 or to 'The Gathering' the weekend after? If so, I'll bring you out a bottle.

Skiing - It depends whether you are looking for lifts. I've had my eye on a line down to the back of Red Tarn off Hellvelyn for a while, but it's a bit of a walk and I doubt that it is in condition for more than a couple of days a year max.
If you live in Scotland and can pick your times, I think there is some good skiing to be done.
My first skiing on snow was in a field in North Yorkshire

huckingfellers, forget Epicski. Have you thought of skiing in London?
We have this amazing contraption

with two ski runs (one's a north-facing slope, the other's a south-facing slope)
The idea is that you use roller skis and request the angle you'd like - black diamond, blue, green etc.

The Americans tried to buy this machine from us some years ago, but discovered they'd actually bought London Bridge, which they shipped over and installed in a desert. I hope it's making money for them.

Huck,

We do mostly have to travel to the Alps and further afield but for those in the north of the Uk Scotland can occassionally be very good indeed

And even the north of England has some good skiing - once every 10 years or so !

It should be said that even the Scottish ski areas are very small by any normal standards. Though some years ago you could normally expect snow of some sort on most of the runs (usually boilerplate scoured by the wind) for many years now with this climate change, there has been generally only rather limited skiing. Just occasionally, though, you can get a few very good days. For example see here and click on the phot gallery near the bottom of the page.
It is somewhere to ski when you hear of good snow, if you are up north anyway - not somewhere to plan skiing or to travel to from far away (eg the southern half of England)
Go to the "Summer skiing in Scotland" thread and lower down you will see links to photos of the winter skiing.
