Poster: A snowHead
|
I've skied quite a bit in France and Austria and I've haven't seen anything like what they are able to do in teh Dololomites. The fact they've got almost 500km of slopes open with no natural snow is nothing short of remarkable.
The warm temps a re going to do a lot of damage right across Europe this Week. I hope it drops in time for Christmas and New Year...

Obviously A snowHead isn't a real person

@cameronphillips2000, warm temps not much of a worry. Rain or Foehn much bigger issues.

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

I called the agent today at igluski who's actually been very useful (he's based in Morzine btw) and he told me not too worry. He didn't dress things up, indeed said the chances are the trees and surrounding would be green on the basis of no snow forecast, however he did ay that the resort is one of the best available (club med) and indeed that every day the Ski instructors will take us skiing, a cable car away in Sestriere, where the current cover on the pistes is good.
He could have sold me on a transfer of resort/area but he believes (and i believe him) that we may as well be there as anywhere, and with excellent all inclusive food!!
It will be a shame if its not all snowy and christmassy however, it's the only time i could get my work and the kids holiday to align for a holiday skiing (Feb half term is not option, daughters birthday and she has plans here) so had to take the chance...
if like the agent says, we get to ski each day, enjoy a lovely resort and be away as a family for new year, objective achieved!!!

Absolutely, I love being in the Alps at any time of the year. I'm sure it will be fine.
