 Poster: A snowHead

Back from Carinthia, the region that DB referred. 200cm fresh snow in some places, and still snowing.
Newspapers claim the biggest snowfall in 80 years.

Similar unprecedented snowfalls reported across the border in the Italian Dolomites.

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

Spent many a Newyears Eve in the Pacheiner on the top of the Gerlitzen before the kids came along.

Was great to watch the New years fireworks from the mountaintop.

snowing this morning on Bodensee, so I guess western Austria is getting a downfall. Glad I decided not to go up there today, visibility is bad even down here.

So if Kitz stays as it is, you think it would be 100% open and good off piste opportunities?... and they'll actually be snow on the Hahnenkamm...?
Heading up there half term. Can't wait!

skiking4, hmmm well half term is a long time away so I think the only thing that is certain is that is probably won't stay as it is until then. There might be more snow, or less, or a similar amount, or more then less, or less then more!
However, there is plenty of skiing in Kitz whatever happens, whether you get good off-piste will rather depend on whether there is fresh snow before you go.

That's what I like to hear. We're getting in tomorrow night, and my father arrives tonight (assuming he can negotiate the roads from the Munich airport). I've been fixed to the webcams all day, and it looks great.
Thanks again for the info you sent me, Kersh. We've got our Christmas dinner reservations sorted at Jägerhäusl with the help of our landlady.

Hiya  ,
I'm a complete newbie on here...
anybody know what it's like in St Johann in Tirol - I think we're near to Kitzbuel?
We fly out Sat morning, my first ski holiday for 4 years...but the first proper one for our 5year old daughter - who is nearly as excited as me about going.

Austria appears to be getting some decent snowfall pretty much everywhere according to the SKGB and J2Ski sites.

Mayrhofen was all open barring a handful of pistes (like the Harakiri) when I left on Monday. Generally excellent conditions all week but not a lot of fresh snow. The past few days have probably rectified that

Who forecasts that in Schladming? Because J2ski is forecasting over half a metre...
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
the next 7 days fir Schladming is 50 odd cm
however Zauchensee nearby is 5cm
and Flachau a valley or so away on the other side from Zauchensee is also 50 odd cm
...so I would take all of the forecasts with a large dose of salt!

Well the Schladming forecast is now a bit less but it's still quite a bit... probably at least a foot.

Kersh, late March! The agony!
Well our 'proper' trip is the end of Feb, but H and I are thinking of sneaking out on Jan 12th for a few days. The sight of all that snow and no chance of skiing it was making me ill, so I thought in the interests of my health, we should pop out in Jan!
Have a great trip when you do go!
ckb90, my 'man on the ground' in Zell said there is plenty of snow right down to the valley. All the lifts/runs might not yet be open as it is the quiet season until tomorrow basically, but there is no shortage of snow. The airstrip at Zell has snow on the runway today and yesterday, and that gets a lot of sun and is the first area to melt, so if that's snowy, it's a very good sign!
