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 :-)

Visited Bydalen in Sweden last week. I usually ski in Åre when I ski in Sweden but wanted to try a new place. Bydalen is located about 70 km from the airport in Östersund but we traveled by car from Stockholm a 650km trip, it was snowing quite heavily to it took us about 7 hours.
We have just arrived
We had a lot of fresh snow during the week and there were not many people there, usually we could ski around without seeing anyone else.
Some thoughts about the place.
Pros:
Almost no people there so you can find fresh snow many days after last snow fall
Easily accessible off-piste
Cons:
Small system
Only t-bar lifts
No huts/restaurants on the mountain only in valley
Not steep enough for us
We had a great week but that was mostly because of the weather. I guess the experience would be better if we would know where to go off-piste, we skied beside the pistes but didn't want to go further away without a guide.
So if you want a place with lot of restaurants, large ski system and fast lifts this isn't the place for you but if you want a quiet place with easy access to off-piste this could be the place.
