Poster: A snowHead
|
Hi there, After a repeat of last year (usual story of friends new houses and babies). I'm taking things into my own hands and going it solo.
I'm keeping my eyes out for last minute deals but would much rather be in a group (shared experiences and all that).
So if anyone has a spare place or people want to group together then get in touch.
Personal preferance is somewhere like Morzine, the weather and Après-ski are usually right up there . But i'm open to suggestions.

Hi Mark. I am solo, similar boat to you. Was looking at Chamonix if interested? Me, intermediate boarder, like apres as well.

Hi sparki,
Have you thought about Paradiski?
We've got a couple of single rooms left in our chalet Campanules for Sun 26th Jan - 2nd Feb for £299 per person, fully catered - details via the link below. Looks set to be a nice sociable week with a couple of different groups including another solo skiier already booked . . .
Happy planning,
Heather

Chamonix was another candidate on my short list as the morzine area can get a bit icy if the sun comes out and the temps go up.

Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

I would suggest looking at this site http://www.ownersdirect.co.uk/ as there are load of places on it. It might also be worth contacting this hotel http://laubergade.com/en/ as they have some old staff rooms that they rent out pretty cheap.
let me know if you go morzine - would be good to meet up

Sparki, CU77, Have you organised something? I'm also a solo snowboarder, 30s, pretty decent (done a few seasons) looking for a holiday.. ideally with other similar types. would be cool to hire a guide for a day or two to explore some backcountry if that's something you might be up for.
Let me know if I might be able to join up with you.

Hi Lucy.
Not organised yet, too much procrastination going on....but I am set on going next Saturday as have leave from works agreed.
France, Chamonix or Meribel but would consider elsewhere providing cost makes sense. Shall we all discuss at weekend by phone? Back country sounds pretty good to me.

Hi Guys,
I hadn't realiised you were set on last wk in Jan. It's not really good week for me as it would mean missing a couple of important social engagements.. And I can't get the time off authorised now either as my boss is off all next week. I'm hoping to go a bit later on. I've got a couple of other options on the boil now so I'll leave you guys to it.
Have a great trip.

No problem Lucy, I'm thinking if I go early I might be able to get another cheeky trip away before the season ends

Thanks for the heads up. I'm actually going stag with AlpineAction. Who have been truly lovely to deal with.
I couldn't recommend them enough and they have some great deals currently on short notice trips.

Might be a bit of a late reply ahah, but i would suggest late Feb as the quality of the snow is still really good, and you will be able to find some great deals online at this period.
