Off to Colorado Springs again on a 'training course' from the 25th - 30th January so will do my usual and go out a few days early and do some skiing in either Breckenridge or Keystone - prefer the latter as it feels a bit more European (without queues and horrible kids pushing in).

Off to Sixt fer a Cheval in the Grand Massif at Easter, we have previously gone there at half term but as my eldest is now at university and doesn't get half term we have had to go later.

Anyone been to Serre Chevalier before? Looks like that's where we might be headed. What's the skiing like? We have one first timer, a couple of novices and a couple of intermediates. Will we all be kept happy?

Lancing!! Sompting actually!
Currently booked to go back to Finland next year, but, not sure if we're going to go, what with the euro and my job might be going next year (just to clarify my job isn't going skiing). In 2 minds at the moment of what to do.

possible Alpbach next year ( we have never been skiing) but we have been there in the Summer a couple of times.

I would really like to see snow again, so we may just go for a long weekend and do the touristy bits

Saalbach in Feb. for some top slopes and some strange retro Austrian afterski with cowsheds full of Rudi Voller lookalikes.

If near Seattle - also try Crystal Mountain, good runs, a lot closer to Seattle and some top notch views of Mount Rainier.
