 Poster: A snowHead
|
Hi all
Just wondering if anyone has any advise or knows about a good website with historical snow that would tell me where is the best place to go for a weekend in November/early December? (not many websites present historical across resorts)
Would like to try Ski Armade as I have read about how close it in to Salzburg for the transfer.
It needs to be as cheap as possible..... Italy, Bulgaria??
Many thanks
Taemo

Atomic Boot Camp at Tignes? There's always the glacier even if it doesn't snow between now and then. I've not been on it, but ran into some guys in Tignes last November who said that it was the cheapest skiing in the world...

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

taemo, generally speaking Tignes really is one of the cheapest places to ski and very few places are reliably open in November. Have a look at the boot camp details - I'm going in October, and it's a great deal.

Thanks, I was looking at a sort of group holiday. That looks great.
Was considering the SCGB avalanche weekend, but that all looked a little too expensive.
I enjoyed hoping over to Tignes, I was in VDI 2 years ago.
Cheers

James & Pam, do you take your own skis with you as well, or hire in resort ?
How often do you get trial skis ?

taemo, I haven't been yet, but I gather there are plenty of skis to try and you don't need to take your own.

kitenski, sorry, mistake in haste. What I meant was, Tignes is one of the most reliable places to ski that early. Sorry!

Taemo,
we have a chalet in Bansko, Bulgaria and some Winters we have fantastic snow early on - we were skiing from November last winter. The official open date is the 13th Dec and the lifts only open early if there is good snow so it would be a bit of a gamble to book an early holiday now for Bansko - you might arrive and find that the lifts havn't opened yet!
