Poster: A snowHead
|
Wanted to get your opinions, I'm planning 2 trips this year (1 has been booked) - the 2nd being a 4 day trip. Given my first trip would be for a week on 2nd week of March, I'm thinking Cervinia from April 17th to 21st.... What do you guys think? Am I pushing it a bit too late in the season?
Where would be best to go that late in the season?

Obviously A snowHead isn't a real person

Should be OK I think - seasons have been getting later. Obviously go high - the higher the better (Val Thorens is the highest) though further East in the Alps you can go relatively a bit lower.

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

I did cervinia a couple of year ago over easter which IIRC was around 13-17 of april. Had a great time...bit slushy at the bottom but fine furher up. Even had snow on the saturday so freshies on the sunday. Nipped over to zermatt on a couple of days to add variety - the last 100 yds of the run into town you had to walk but apart from that all good.
I'd definately go if I was you. in fact I might be termpted to do the same myself...

13 -17 April ? The season will have only just got going by then !
I'm just about, spouse permitting, to book a Cham trip with the boys during the last week of the season in May.

Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

I'vee done Verbier on/around 20th April for the last two years and it has been fantastic. ALright, all the runs aren't open but you're skiing in a t-shirt and getting a great tan. This time of yearr has a whole different feel to it.
I'd highly recommend it!
