 Poster: A snowHead

Ischgl's slightly unfortunate (in the light of the Covid outbreak) slogan is "Relax, if you can".
Whoops - they might want to come up with a new one!
Any other resorts have slogans?

These slogans seem to be dropping out of usage.
Saas Fee used to brand itself as the Pearl of the Alps and Alpe D'Huez had a strange one about being an island in the sun.

not bad if you've spent the winter in the smoke to have a bit of sunshine. Not everyone wants a north facing fridge for their ski holiday.

Indeed not, but island of sun conjures up more Harry Belafonte than Jean-Claude Killy.
Still the resort powers-that-be could have used: "Quite a lot better than Les Deux Alpes"!

I know what you mean, then again doesn't Serre Chevalier sell itself on "300 days of sunshine per year" - doesn't sound like they get a lot of snow in all that.

I seem to remember that Verbier markets itself as “the resort that smiles at the sun” (which I suppose is thinking positive about a south-facing orientation).
