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 :-)

In an innovative move to create business from a neglected eyesore, the Bełchatów Coal Mine in southwest Poland is being converted into a ski area and snowpark.
Old slagheaps have been bulldozed into three pistes, each approximately 1km long, serviced by ski lifts and a snowmaking system...

"We are planning to open our resort in the middle of December," says Bełchatów Coal Mine's Wojciech Wiśniewski. "The ski lift can transport around two thousand people per hour. It is located near several cities, thus, we expect many skiers.
The facility is due to open in early December. This report from
Warsaw Business Journal.
