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 :-)

Just looking at dates for next year. Is the Birthday Bash always very early February?
We probably need to get the kids settled in school for the year before going away so mid Feb or later would be our dates I think.

@sbooker, Yes the Birthday Bash is always the week that has the 5th Feb in it (as that is the date snowHeads was created back in 2004 snowHead ). So looking at the 2020 Calendar that would be Sat 1st Feb to Sat 8th Feb. I don't know if that's too early for you, but if you can manage to get to it (and maybe fitting in a ski trip in the following week to somewhere like Switzerland?) I'm sure you'd get a warm welcome from fellow snowHeads. Madeye-Smiley

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

@sbooker, yes, consistently held first full week of February.

Any later and the challenges that come with school holidays and peak season in Europe have to be faced. Higher prices, extra traffic, busier pistes, etc.

So the crowds in the school holidays are usually very significant? We were pleasantly surprised at the relative lack of crowds even over the New Year week. La Thuile was particularly quiet but Cervinia was busy. Chamonix was not overly busy either.
By looking at the calendar for next year it looks like the best option would be to wait until the second week of March. We prefer cold winter type snow so somewhere high and north facing may be the best bet. @Alastair Pink,
I’m sure the Birthday Bash would be great fun but that week is just too early for us I’m afraid. It will be the kids second week of school and we’d prefer to get them well settled before heading off and handing the reigns over to the grandparents.

Tignes/Espace Killy would fit the bill
sbooker - massive, snow sure, high area & a great variety of slopes. Fantastic off piste too.

@sbooker, second week of March ideal and pretty much anywhere should be good then. You don't need to go particularly high.
