It is funny how many people chose aspen. It is famous but I'd cross it off your list. If coming to the states there are so many better places to go than there. Try Jackson or Utah instead.

I'd also like to go back to Serre Chevalier as it was where I spent my first (hopeless) week, so would like to do the resort justice.

abc, I'm sure Helen knows that Colorado is a vast state, but having never visited she would not want to state a preference for one resort over another. Maybe you could give us your recommendations?

Truffaut - brilliant response!
I'm still chuckling 10 minutes after first reading it!
For those who've missed the subtle humour, have a look above (Fri 1 Feb 13.20).
It's amazing how many (allegedly) respectable skiers Truffaut's comments apply to.....

Like I said, it's not about Helen, or anyone else. It's similar to an American say: "Jackson Hole, Vail, France" as their potential 'resorts" to go.
When she does decide to go to Colorado, I'm sure she'll get lots of recommendations (including mine).

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

abc,see your point, but don't think this is typically a European failing- from my totally biased view of your fellow countrymen I could quite believe they would say, "Jackson Hole, Vail, France".
From an equally stereotypical stand point, I would like to visit Austria (haven't bothered to think of a resort)- not for the skiing but because I have a vision of pigtailed busty blondes in lederhosen serving huge tankards of beer!
Conversely I picture Vail, Aspen or Sundance as sunny pine lined pistes with Champagne powder up to your elbows, but hate the idea of being constantly told to "Have a nice day" and being "Super sized!"

You know it makes sense.

JulesB, Just back from 4 days skiing Radstadt, Altenmarkt, Zauchensee, Flachuawinkl, Flachau, Wagrain. Apart from the first 2, we barely touched the others. A magnificent experience at half the price of the big French resorts, the best lift sytems in the world, and some wondeful skiing.
