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 :-)

Yes, I only just found it, and love looking at them, yes I think it is a powder snake, or Krampus witch! Any flavour would be great, thanks Smile How are Debbie and Ollie doing, both well again, I hope. Smile

Debbie is still having problems with her shoulder from a fall in December last year, she didn't realise it was bad due to the painkillers she was taking for her cracked ribs! We just found last week that her biceps tendon has a one inch tear in it and may need surgery. Ollie is fine.
How's your mum doing? How's the brewery?

Light snow during the night, opening day at Auffach. The forecast storm with high winds did not materialise. About 5cm of new snow in the valley and 10 -15cm on the top.

View from the Auhof this morning

Sun just coming out now, -6 in the valley a bit warmer on the mountain. Off to Scheffau today, not that there is anything wrongwith the SkiJuwel area but I've got a course there later in the week.

All the best for the course, Chris Smile There is quite a lot of standing about as I remember and it can be very cold there although there is a heated chairlift which I was extremely keen on!! The promised sunshine and cold is absent today, it is milder and cloudy so far, although the forecast is still saying cold and clear. Will keep you posted Smile

Looks like you jumped the gun on the sunshine, cloud cleared at about 9am, very mild though +5 at the top of Auffach at lunchtime. Pistes were a little soft the best ones being the link to Alpbach and the run to the middle station.

Still very quiet, this is the car park this morning.



Sunny Schatzberg Smile



There are some people here



But not many

espri, I did a couple of hours on Saturday, actually managed to do a couple of turns both ways so happy with that, found it hard on the legs though. I certainly knew I had been doing something different on Saturday night.

carolyn, It seems to be going ok, I have my first Lehrauftritt tomorrow. I need to stiffen my boots tonight as it's so warm, pistes were superb today due to the cold overnight temperatures. Pity I didn't take the camera, sitting outside in the sun at lunchtime looking at the mountains I can handle.

Looking forward to arriving in Niederau on the 28th...so the resort opens this Friday (20th)?...any more pictures of the pistes as a tad worried about the snow/ temps and need my mind putting at rest. Bringing the GFs kids out for their first ski trip so hoping there will be enough snow. As an aside we are staying in the Almdorf cabins and looking for eating options that will also suit a 11 boy/ 8 year old girl...which hotels / restaurants are recommended and what the best place to book for NYE meal?? sorry for all the questions on the this snow thread Very Happy Very Happy

divekris, I've been at Scheffau for the last week on a course, the pistes there are fine and I would suspect that Niederau is actually better as most of the pistes have been prepared but have not had large volumes of traffic to wear it all away. The snow cannons have also seen plenty of use, have a look at https://www.facebook.com/pages/SNOW-CREW-Niederau/370590979742131?ref=stream to help put your mind at rest. I will post some pictures at the weekend when I will get a chance to get out at Niederau. If you are in the Almdorf you are just at the bottom of the hill from me.
As far as food goes all of the hotels will do childrens meals or maybe small portions of adult meals, there is always the Ferrari pizzeria http://www.pizzeria-ferrari.at/ but it does tend to get busy, there is another takeaway place just below you on the main road to Worgl but I can't coment on this as I haven't used it, I don't think it has opened for the season yet.
For a new year meal out you will have to make booking that high on your priority list when you arrive, last year we went to the Wastlhof http://www.hotelwastlhof.at/1/hotel-wastlhof/welcome/ and were certainly happy with the meal and service.
