Having just booked my second trip, I was wondering how everyone else was getting on.
A week in Tignes (December) and a week in Whistler (February) for me.

Week in Whistler! Nice... erm, not started... who you flying and where you staying and what prices!?

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

Just booked a week in Tignes (end of December) and two long weekends in January (friend's apartment in Villars). Still need to fit in: early season tour (Dachstein crossing), late season tour (TBC) and a boys' weekend in March. Phew! Then there's just the EOSB to think about ...

I'm trying to gather various groups of people together for our as-yet theoretical trips - a process I can best liken to trying to fit a fat girl into a wedding dress.
Each time I push a bit in, and it looks like I've solved the problem, another bit pops out somewhere else.

Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

michaelminhatkinson, I highly recommend Ski Independence, who considerably bettered Crystal prices. Quick, friendly, efficient service.

Cheers... luckily a friend of mine is skiing in NZ at the mo so reminded me about checking out snowheads... now I'm hooked again, so might have to head to the the snow dome soon! Will definately check out Ski Independence.
Definately 3 trips on the penciled in plan at the moment!

Nothing firmly booked yet. Looking at a week's off-piste with some guys I skied with last year, a week's steepish off-piste - and maybe a week in Wengen to wind down after that. Could be a Swiss-only skiing season - which is a bit of a shame, since recent chat about LDA is making me feel almost homesick.

We've got 18 of us booked to Tignes mid-december, nothing booked for Jan yet but will probably do our usual second week break to recover from Xmas

And due to incredible amounts of post-banking-collapse belt-tightening we're seriously thinking about spending Half Term week in the Vosges.
10km of flat runs and drag lifts is enough for a week, yeah?

Just the week in Tignes in Dec booked so far for me. But I have 3 weeks of hols from work saved up to use so will be sorting something soon I hope.
I'm also half-considering jacking my job in and doing a season somewhere.
Will there be a Birthday Bash and a MSB in 2011 I wonder?

Very well put, I am in exactly the same position, trying to fix two group trips and have been trying on and off since May, still nothing booked and feeling twitchy

End of October in Sölden for the World Cup weekend, November on the Kitzsteinhorn for a week, December start using my season ticket for the Super Salzburg area. Monday to Friday working, Saturdays, Sundays and Bank holidays skiing anywhere between the Kitzbühler Alpen and Niederösterreich as the mood takes me.
Nice when the mountains are on your doorstep all year round!

stanton, we all book early so we can get a chalet/hotel/apartment big enough for a group of friends. I guess that's a concept you're unfamiliar with ......

Booked Madonna Di Campiglio for mid-Jan with the family. Close to booking L2A in March with the boys too... Managed to keep my snow obsession largely under wraps since May, but losing control again now...

VolklAttivaS5, which week/course? I'm there 9 Jan on ItS

cathy, so am I. I'm flying out on 8th though, not staying at the Dahu (already booked accomodation through Inghams before later deciding to do course only). I'm on Off Piste, how about you?

Booked Christmas in Le Grand Bornand (Chinaillon) again - different apartment though, on the Outalays.
Would like to add another trip but Easter hols might be a bit late (unless we go higher.....) and Feb is a bit of a scrum.
Going to Hemel on Thursday too.
