Poster: A snowHead

Hello everyone,
Am very excited to find a new place to go skiing and snowboarding in. Armenia. It's only 5 hours from the UK or 4 from Germany/France/Austria.
They have some undiscovered mountains without the hassles of being busy with pristine skiing conditions and all new lifts and facilities... Great place to discover and enjoy the winter sports!
Found a site which has more info about it http://www.skiarmenia.com

Ah, who cares if it's spam, I still love reading about new, exotic places.
My favourite section on the webpage:

Uniquely positioned with direct flights regularly from:
- London
- Paris
- Munich
- Vienna
- Prague
- Moscow |
That's unique?

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

How do they know?
ami in berlin, most places are uniquely positioned; if they weren't, they'd be somewhere else.
I love the testimonials from happy skiers.

The site you get from clicking on 'Book Your Holiday' is even more fun:

They have a weather report that tells you how much radiation is in the air. Is this normally an issue in that part of the world?
I'm also a little confused by the Olympic Center on the map. I see how I can ski to it, but how do I leave?

ami in berlin, it has recently been renamed the "Olympic Center", it used to be the "Hotel California" - you can ski in any time you like, but you can never leave...

Hey I've also just noticed that the Geomagnetism is Stable - well thats a relief, I'd hate to be there at times of instability!
I'm also a little disappointed that they aren't reporting on the gravity found in the area, could be very important to stick to the slopes

A week's skipass is about 50 quid. Seems kinda high for a handful of lifts. Perhaps there is some unexplored offpiste. It is close to Iran, which has some top snowfields.

And love to help out and answer questions and of course, read each other's snow reports.

Thanks guys for the warm welcome
Looks like the olympic center was where the soviet team trained back in the day... I was there in the summer and went up the mountain on the lifts, they said they're putting in 11 more lifts next year... it's all new and I love the fact that not many people know about it so far... so its great to miss the crowds... and did I mention everything is cheap?!?!?! VERY CHEAP!!

Off piste potential look promising, and its better value than a big fridge.

All looks rather too gentle though, unless you are a beginner.
