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 got back off the Glacier at Stubai. Neustift has a degree of snow cover but the mountain is absolutely fantastic. A bluebird (well mostly) day with pistes almost perfect and waist deep powder to be had at will. A great day with another promised tomorrow!! Very Happy Toofy Grin

Just back from Hintertux. The entire area (Hintertux itself, that is) is open including the village run, all on natural snow. Lots of snow fell since Sunday 30th, started Sunday morning, rather timidly, and then snowed heavily all night and all day Monday, well into Tue morning. 55 cm fresh as of Monday according to resort TV station. Mayrhofen opens tomorrow or Saturday, I believe. The slopes around Lanersbach are all white, in fact whiter than they were last Christmas! Very Happy

A bit late I know, however, a couple of pics from my Kaprun trip, 23-30 November :

Kitzsteinhorn Glacier looking towards Kaprun & Zell am See:



Top of the Areitbahn above Zell am See looking towards the Kitzsteinhorn and the dams above Kaprun:



Conditions on the Kitzsteinhorn were excellent, not quite so good at Zell am See, pistes a bit thin in places. Lift queues were non existent. Skied till I could ski no more.

All in all an excellent week to start the season snowHead

Warth opened yesterday. Snow conditions were excellent. It was fairly busy but no queues all day. Most of the pistes were open, no bare patches spotted all day, but then there was fresh snow from 11:30 onwards.

Weather was good in the morning but deteriorated rapidly in the afternoon. The road down the hill was pretty scary for a uk driver who last drove on snow over 20 years ago!!

Looks like west Austria is getting a big dumping of snow, StAnton, Lech, Warth and Bregenzerwald all reporting upto 30cm of new snow today, according ot the reports on www.bergfex.com

I drove to Hittisau this morning. http://www.bergfex.com/hochhaederich/
It was heavy rain in Friedrichshafen, but that changed to snow once in the Bregenzerwald valley. It took me ages to get up the approach road to the resort. Had to resort to snowchains half way up, even with the snowplough doing constant runs up and down the road. When I got to the top there were two piste bashers atttempting to clear the car park. the visibility was very bad in heavy snow. Not a great day to learn Nordic which was my plan for the day. I decided to leg it down the hill before I got stuck. Passed anothe 4 cars stuck on the hill whilst descending.

Top Tip: Practice putting new snow chains on during a warm dry day. Half way up a snowy hill was not the place to be reading instructions

DB, Thanks for the links, I used to live in Klagenfurt, during the 98/99 season which was very snowy. Looking at those pics brings back lots of memories and makes me wish I was still there. Nassfeld was one of my favourite Saturday trips, and my local 'Heimatsberg' was Gerlitzen, which was a great place to learn to ski!

Thanks again
D
