Poster: A snowHead
|
Any ideas about a resort? I've been tasked with sorting something out for our next trip.
They guys i ski with have done most of the major European stuff.
Any suggestions?

tp023, A few criteria might help.
Try Fernie. That' a great resort, I really loved it. It's in Canada though, might be abit far if you're only planning a weekend trip - see what I mean?
The "resort report" alpahbetical index might be a good place for you to start.

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

Thanks, it'll be at least a week long trip. I'll have a look over the resort guide.
Just got back from arabba. Had some great snow thursday/friday.

Hi,
Say up to £900 per person. Should be about 8 of us. At least 7 days up to 11/12 days. Bit of nightlife would be nice. Varied ski level people going so need a nice range of challenges from advanced to people who've only skied once or twice.

tp023, if there are no kids, then Zermatt.

tp023, Was Arabba a bit quiet for you or about right? Could you list the major resorts you guys have been to?

Arabba was a bit too quite.
Most have already been to St Anton, Val d’Isere, Meribel, Courchevel.
Zermatt sounds interesting. Was thinking maybe Fernie & Kimberley. Any thoughts?
All male group aged between 30 & 50.

And love to help out and answer questions and of course, read each other's snow reports.

tp023, You should definitely come here - very lively night life - 220 kms of piste - many unmarked blacks (more black slopes than anything else actually - don't believe the piste map). Several nice places you could stay, and nothing like the other French resorts you've mentioned. If you have transport you can ski 2 days at ADH (350km piste) and 1 day at Serre Che to boot. La Grave is usually open by then as well.......... early intermediates are OK here as are beginners - it's the middle "traveller" who finds it awkward.

You know it makes sense.

tp023, Have a look at our website www.skialacarte.co.uk (sorry forgot to pop it onto my earlier post) and get in touch if you think it could be suitable. We are happy to give special prices to Snowheads - particulartly when it is so far in advance!
