 Poster: A snowHead

Hi,
We are a mixed group of solo girls and guys, mostly over 40 of intermediate to advanced ability, skiers and boarders.
Most of us have got together through here, so thought we'd see if anyone else would like to join us either March 10/11th for a week somewhere with snow, which should be no problem in most of Europe this year.. 
There is about 8 of us so far with a few that may add on closer to the date.
Nothing booked yet, looking to do this in the next week or so, budget is £600-£650, usually Catered chalet or Catered Hotel including flights etc.
We are based all over the country so most airports catered for.
Cheers
Rach

Hi Rach
I'd be very interested in joining you.
I'm male, 53 a very keen skier and pretty easy going. I felt crushed this week as for the first time in many years my usual ski buddies are unable to go because of work commitments  .
Be more than happy to mix and match as required. I'm Midlands based but happy to go from Manch/Gatwick as required.
Cheers
Rich

Thanks

@Redskisgofaster, hi, myself and a friend (male 52/62 age) likely to be going that weekend for a week. Sounds like we’re similar ski standards and we tend to push ourselves on the mountains.
Midlands based, so BHX, EMA, MAN, LPL all good for us.
Any thoughts on typical areas you might go for? We’ve been most places between us, so know a fair bit about resorts and ‘the market’.

@Redskisgofaster, I'm looking for a group to go with that week.
I'm 52, and best described as a nervous early intermediate.
I've had 4 weeks, ski schools on 3 of them (struggled through in Mayrhofen, then hired a private instructor for 2 days). When in Sauze the instructor took us over to Sestriere (skied over) and I skied a short black. I CAN ski, but my technique isn't great and I struggle with first day speed fear and Bambiitis, and hate narrow tracks.
I want to go with a group, but spend the first 1 or 2 days on the easy slopes getting to grips with my fear, then hopefully hook up with the group after that (others welcome to join me on the easy slopes if they need to get their ski legs back). I hope to come away from this having met some nice people, skied a decent distance, and having exercised some ski demons.
I'm based in St Albans, so good for all London airports.
I'm a bit of a joker, I like a laugh, I like a beer but not a ton. I'm happy to share but I would prefer a single room if one is available.
Anyway, I haven't exactly sold myself here but better to be honest. I won't be offended if you don't think I'm a good fit.

Have you decided on a place? The chalets at le champs de moulin campsite are very cheap.and warm, walking distance to gondola for ski slopes includes sauna and camp.shop. cheapest place Ive found and great skiing at les deux alpes. Two bedrooms in each. My family booked 3 one year.

Hi Everyone,
Could you pm me with your email address and I can put you on our group email, starting to look at options this week.
All are welcome, we are easy going and some of us like a beer and a bit of après and others will go back and chill and then raid the Chalet wine! Just bring a sense of fun.
Early intermediates are welcome as we can meet up after lunch if you do ski school or lessons, some of us tend to do this early in the week, if it's a first ski of the season.
Cheers
Rach

Hi there, have yous booked anything yet? I’m a 47 years female from Newcastle. I’m a beginner/ intermediate. Skied about 6 weeks over the years and would like to get more confident on reds. Ideally l’d like to go to the 3 valleys, but really somewhere good for a timid intermediate. Ive skied in Tignes and fall d’isere in past and liked these. May be interested in joining with yous. Andrea

I would be interested in joining your group. I'm a male intermediate skier, somewhat older than most of the others that have replied, and happy on most reds. I'm based in Teesside so prefer flying from Newcastle, Leeds/Bradford or possibly Manchester. Not fussy as to resort as long as there's snow.
