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 :-)

Who's interested in Meribel?

Poster: A snowHead

The Daily Telegraph certainly is. It's devoted three separate webholes (is that the correct technical term?) to this charming British-built chalet interpretation of an English suburb, which was the original idea of Colonel Peter Lindsay in 1938.

This is what the Telegraph has to offer on the state of the nation in Meribel in 2008:

- Méribel ski guide: introduction and basics
- Méribel ski guide: top five runs
- Méribel ski guide: bars and restaurants

They seem to have left something out. What is it?
And ... has anyone met Gabriella?

'the valley is V-shaped, making for some steep descents' this is a pretty stupid statement, there are some steep descents but what other kinds of valleys are there? The only the other one I know of is a U shaped valley caused by a glacier which has much steeper sides.

Good point. A U-shaped valley could, in theory, have partly vertical sides. A V-shaped valley couldn't.

On the other hand, the steepness of a ski run is also determined by how much the run traverses the side of the valley, rather than taking it in the fall-line.

I think we should discuss this with Gabriella.
