Taking the current European snow conditions into account and that you wouldn't mind skiing any conditions i.e. either piste, bumps, off piste or any combination thereof...
where would you choose to go for this weekend (18th-20th April) and why?

Saalbach - I've not been out today as there has been a raging blizzard outside all day and the lifts were closed this morning, but like Kaprun just down the road, there's more forecast for the next couple of days, then sunshine Friday/Saturday

Just arrived in Mayrhofen, locals reporting 50cm last night up at Hintertux and 20cm+ up the Penken.
Snowing lightly in the village right now, snow line is round about Finkenberg.
Forecast for the next few days is sun then sun and then snow showers for the weekend, so Tux looks like the best option for then.
View from the balcony earlier, cant see Finkenberg now for the snow.

First ever post!
I'm going to the Limousin over Easter and rarely, Le Mont Dore is still open this late. Only a handful of pistes open but as it's 1.5hrs from where I'll be staying and the pass is 15euro, it'd be rude not to get an afternoon in the sun. It will only be day no 8 for me.

Welcome leggyblonde .. welcome to forum.
Have a good weekend.
Have a good weekend all of you, I'm off to Val Thorens with the Snowheads next week.

You know it makes sense.
|
Depends what your after
Scotland or Iceland is a good shout for something different...
Avoriaz has some decent bumps at the moment...come Friday and you can buy me a beer 
I'd book Thursday based on forecasts as it looks like some places could get some decent snow this weekend...the Alberg perhaps doing well...

clarky999,
I love that run back around to Zurs ...
There is a point in the the rocky bits about halfway down where you can shout ..
"See you next year!" and it echoes back ..
..........."See you next year!"
...................."See you next year!"
..........................."See you next year!"

DrLawn, you mean the cliffy bit on skier's left? Traverse (a LONG way around) above that and you'll find a nice couloir

clarky999,
Its a while since I've been there but I mean
Take the long chair up from the lake and then turn left and down over the cliff on the piste back ...
It can only be a couple of hundred meters down the piste.
If I remember it well you can look over across the road to the HexenBoden.
I really need to get a life and just go back there again.
I love the whole of the Alberg and the Vor Alberg
Then I can search out your Couloir.

Thanks for all your thoughts folks.
Flying into Innsbruck on Friday morning and haven't decided 100% where to go yet but Stubai, Kaprun, Solden, Hochgurgl and St Anton/Lech Zurs are all options now!
