Also trying out my Go Pro so expect some sick* footage shortly.
*may not be 100% accurate.

Richard_Sideways, you're not the only one. I'm a mere mortal with average income and full-time job. So my season will never be more than one week away and a further short break if finances allow. Snowheads has a large proportion of members who live and/or work in the mountains or who are retired/semi-retired and can spend lots more time in the mountains. One day that will be me (I live in hope!).

queen bodecia, while the kids are young we're happy to pay the premium for the services of Ski Espirit. In a few years time, maybe budget will stretch further, but for now we're one-week-warriors. Hopefully Jnr2 will take to snow as well as his brother did.

Just thought I'd say I got my first day skiing in for the 2011-2012 season. A ski mountaineering descent of Snæfell an 1800 odd meter peak in Iceland.

End of November is the PSB with you lovely people in Tignes.
First Weekend of Feb is Les Arcs/La Plagne with work buddies, staying with MountainSun in Les Coches.
Definitely no family trips for me this year!
I'm really excited as they are both resorts that I have never skied before - not that I have done that many ski areas as I'm a bit of a creature of habit

Just booked a week in La Tania with boyfriend for week of Jan 4th. Woo!
He's just learning and will be in ski school in the mornings. I'll keep myself occupied, but it'd be nice to have some company. Anyone around that week that fancies a morning blasting around some reds?

Plans were in the process of being made for me and the missus to head out to Meribel 2nd week in Jan.
Stayed in Les Menuires last year but ski'd over to Meribel to meet and spend the day with family/friends. Loved it, definately my new favourite ski area.
Things were looking good, found some great deals on accomodation and the EuroStar was all but booked... then she informs me that she may have to travel away with work that week. Its one of the few weeks I can get away in the winter and it crossed my mind more than once to go 'stag'..! (I kid, she would totally kill me)

Should be a nice and busy winter for me! All kicks off in Tignes with 3 weeks of GS training. Then off to a Eurotest somewhere to hopefully pass!
Working with ESI Chatel from December 18th when our season here kicks off. Level 4 BASI Tech/Teach exams in Hintertux in May. So should have plenty of work and my time off will be spent making sure I am well prepared for my exams!
Really looking forward to it, we've just had our first snowfall from 1700 upwards aswell today and I was out on my DH bike!
