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 :-)

My laptop has just crashed after typing a detailed trip report....
Not doing it again - so here are a few bullet points in summary:
- Epic snow conditions - skied some powder every day, right up to last day of the trip. 2 days were like catskiing in Canada, it was so deep.
- Briliant scenery and lovely villages.
- Great prices - eg €3 big beers and €2.5 hot chocs.
- 3 days at Ski Juwel - Niederau; Auffach; and Alpbach. Stayed in Niederau.
- 4 days in the Zillertal - Spieljoch/Hochfuegen; Mayrhofen (Penken and Ahorn); deserted Hintertux Glacier; and Zillertal Arena. Stayed at Fuegen and Schwendau.
- Fantastic night in the Igloo Hotel at the top of the Ahorn in Mayrhofen.
- Bust my thumb on the final run of the hol...now 4 weeks in plaster and having to cancel a trip to Zermatt in Feb. Plaster will be off for a week by then but specialist advises against skiing for 2 weeks after it's off...
- Brilliant trip nevertheless

great snow & great photos!
I'm surprised no-one else has seen them yet.
A pity about your thumb...
Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?
