jacksonhole, I would agree with what you say, and I think that self-evidently many of these resorts were not destination resorts. Abetone is small - althought if you are a petrolhead it does benefit from being an hours drive from the Galleria Ferrari at Maranello. I have only been there in the Summer.
This seemed to me to be a perfectly good bit of writing, where someone who has skied hundreds of his resorts was trying to share his perspective with those who read the Observer. I don't think snowHeads should see themselves as the target audience. I cannot understand the criticism here.
ps Jackson Hole - if you are at a loose end... - feel free to edit/extend the snowHeads wiki entry I started for your namesake

Swiller, who are you? Are you posting in good faith? Are you hiding behind a stupid name because you have an axe to grid that would become obvious to us if we knew you you were?

You'd be hard pressed to hear French in Vaujany such are the number of Brits who go there. I really thought that was taking things a bit too far.

this is true (although most of the Belgians there probably speak French ) but it is still a tiny resort and the number of Brits who visit there compared with, say, nearby Alpe d'Huez is also tiny
