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 :-)

was there last year, lots of snow at Easter, and an awesome blue-bird run off the back of the Gemstock with our guides. Not a bad weekend away with the Tea Club.....
compared to some summer holidays on the Turkish/Eqyptian border, there was little evidence of military activity....

Yeah, there's massive construction going on there now Sad Won't be nearly as nice when that's all complete as it is now; time to make the most of it!

The article says no major tour operators currently offer packages to Andermatt. I need to get there before they start.

Remember that Engelberg (which I've skied twice: can be spectacularly good) is not very far from Andermatt, so you can potentially do a spectacular two-resort off-piste-focused trip.

They are basically doubling the size of the village, and also building a golf course, which is why i have heard of it before Smile At least they are trying to keep the buildings more 'swiss' looking than typical tower blocks.
