Mail for help.Help!!

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 :-)

Ben133, I heard of a rather good sounding insurance deal somewhere that seemed to insure you for just about everything, and cost nearly zilch. I'm sure someone posted something about it, but can't find it now.

OK Ben133, yes you need insurance, not sure what's best for you if you're doing a season. I would guess the best people to advise woud be veeeight and paulhothersall as they both spend seasons in Whistler (IIRC).

I've heard good things about it, though don't have it myself so can't speak from personal experience. However, I can tell you that you need to be covered for all kinds of health care and being carted off the mountain if required. Cancellation insurance would probably be a good idea, and you might want to insure your belongings as well.

No idea. Try http://www.gapyeartravel.com/?afl=4580-1005

Or you could just put 'gap year insurance' into Google.

BMC is the gold standard IIRC & you can pay to extend cover for extended stays but not cheap. Gap year / backpacker policies can be a minefield to wade through for skiing activities.
