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 :-)

Looks like Zell has a few runs open, and would probably be opening a few more after this snowfall.

Thanks for the quick response! I should add I prefer off piste hence looking at the glaciers, but looking for nearby areas if poor vis

The Kitzteinhorn is a pretty bleak prospect in the winter and especially so in mid-December. The skiing is OK but given that the lower resorts nearby will have snow next week, I would recommend staying low. There is some fun to be had in Hochkonig and the Skicircus away from the pistes and you'll get a better lunch and there's more oxygen, which helps! As you've saved on the flights and accomodation, get a car from SZG and a Superski lift pass and try a few different areas. Even the Gasteins are fun for a day if you like retro lifts.......

Thanks klamm franzer, was in the gasteins last year for 10 days, sportgastein was probably the worst of the lot, never thought I would see so many rocks in glacier area.
Do you know where is good with a small amount of snow? ie grassy slopes that fill in quickly?

Pass Thurn, maybe it starts a bit higher and is quite open allowing you to make plenty of lines between the pistes. You can get over to the Kitzbuhel side too.

Once this storm blows through the conditions should be great. The sking on the glacier last week was very good although no off piste, the forecast for Thursday and Friday is good with very little wind so the glacier should be fine.
Saalbach and Zell should have more open by then.

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

Saalbach (whose ski area of course includes Austria's freeride mecca, Fieberbrunn) (For enticing freeride videos search Youtube for "Richard Bergenholtz Saalbach")

Not a place I'll be returning to, regardless of the conditions. There are plenty of countries and resorts with good (and better) skiing that don't require dealing with the arrogant pieces of work I experienced in Kaprun/Zell earlier this year
