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 :-)

Not sure I would use the word "planned" in my case. More of a last minute impulse "screw it, it's the weekend, and there's snow", and hurriedly throw everything in a bag.

Hokkaido is work.

Which gives me the money and time to play in Georgia and the Alps.

Brecon Beacons is petrol money Smile

What work do you do, I need to switch jobs I think, can't see myself balloon twisting or design on a mountain. Although ballooning goes down anywhere.

Had two weeks in Champoluc for Christmas/New Year. Currently in Nauders for a sneaky extra long weekend break for my wife's birthday. Next up is the Off-Piste Bash in Serre Chevalier. After that I've nothing booked but probably a late season week in Val Thorens. Followed by virtually no holidays until Christmas.

Just back from a week with the family in Les Menuires and off to Meribel in 2 weeks with friends. It would be nice to see a little more sunshine and experience a little less wind but we had lots fun in fresh snow pretty much every day, so can't complain. Great fun introducing the kids to side-piste this year and on-piste 'pillow snow' as our daughter called the mounds of pre-mogul powder that she loved falling over in!

@clarky999, that will be interesting - we're looking at the Skiers Haute Route not to be confused with the M25 version.

The Urner Alps Traverse

http://youtube.com/v/4qazD6znOcg

Even though I spend the season in Serre Chevalier I do get out and about on various road trips, sometimes a valley or two away as in a ski tour today in Nevache, or pop over the Lautaret to La Grave, or further afield sometimes hooking up with mates who are out on hols, did Trois Vallees a month or so back.

The obvious beauty / attraction of ski touring is that we just take ourselves off and discover new valleys and routes.

Have the SIGB ski test in Kuhtai next week so might tie that road trip in with somewhere in the Dolomites on the way back.

Then after the hols have finished and depending on snow conditions we'll go down to the Queyras where lift passes are reduced by 50% and the same pass you can ski up to eight resorts in a day, but usually we just do one in the morning and one in the afternoon.

I'm fortunate to be able to stay out for a season, but one mate certainly makes up by cramming in loads of amazing trips throughout the year utilising the Southern hemisphere as well. He probably ends up skiing more powder days than me who lives out in the mountains rolling eyes
