[quote="topmo3"]No need to go abroad. I heard Scotland has good spots! Can't for the life of me remember the names though...[/quote
cairngorms are alright. pretty austere cold intense and barren though, plus tiny ski area. definitely worth saving up to get out the country imo!

Quality/price wise my favourite country so far is Czech republic. Very cheap accommodation, right at
the first lift. Food and beer was quite cheap too. Don't expect fancy parks though.
Best of everything was Austria/Zell am See, had access to 3 resorts with guaranteed snow for almost 5 months. The highest areas have great pow bits too.

Quite lucky myself, my brother moved to Oslo; 15 minutes from a great snowboard park. Way expensive
though, only reason I can afford it is the free accommodation

LOL no. I guess it was someone who's been banned?

murky21 wrote:nice, yeah thinking of feb too. VT is definitely the best for cost of living/ food/ drink etc. If snow isn't looking up might have to look into tignes too, those glacier sitting, high altitude mufuckas always do alright for snow even on a bad season

Went to Tignes last year. 4th week without fresh snow. Not pretty or fun. Even off piste was complete ice. One of my mates ended up sliding down a black on his back for a few hundred metres. We thought it was gonna be a helicopter mish. He just got up and dusted himself off. Phew!

Starting to think about this season's trip too!

Andorra isn't overly expensive, neither was Austria.

PinUp wrote:Smaller resorts like morzine or morillon tend to be a bit cheaper if you wan't to stick in france but the facilities really arent as good. Bulgaria is said to pretty good but i don't know how easy it is getting there and stuff. I've had good experiences in Austria and Andorra. I've always been skeptical about late season skiing, nothing worse than getting half way down a slope and having to take your skis off and walk the rest of it in your boots!

I went late season skiing in Maine (literally last week it was open) when I was quite new at skiing. Didn't even notice it was tough going but my instructor was struggling lol. Did end up massively sunburnt though as I had to ski in a t-shirt coz it was so warm. Also just avoided cracking my head against a randomly exposed boulder. Soft skidding/landing on mushy grass though!

Tempted to go Austria this year, always hear good things.

might wanna try and have a peek here:

everywhere in france looks good atm, good snow...

starting to seriously consider booking.. wheres all the cheap deals at?

been looking at wasteland ski, big student ski crew, can get 7 days accomodation, lift pass in places like Alpe D'huez, tignes, vT for under 300, seems decent. anyone else got any suggestions of good cheap package people?

Tignes or VT for inc. accomodation & lift pass under 300 is a serious deal. doubt you'll find much better really. Just got to sort getting there now really.

Good find! Might have to go VT again!

in switzerland you got loads of nice places.. some of the longest slopes and you can be very near to a city too - so you can party properly after skiing.
but it ain't cheap.

I think that's the main problem!

check this link u slags, bare cheap deals inside

la jou du loup is an awesome place not to big but still good for a week fun and its pretty cheap.
i'm heading to mayrhofen in 3 weeks, les 2 alpes in 6 weeks and sölden during Easter and all together thats pretty expensive

Went to Les gets over Xmas, got a decent deal cos there were 8 of us in a chalet but its everything is such a rinse on the mountains its a joke. I dont think I'lll go again anytime soon but my mrs is obsessed with skiing (she's a ski guide ffs)

Like the sound of Czech Republic I might have a look at that now.

Here's a photo for the thread

whats the snow crew saying then? we have nailed down going probably alpe d'huez, 10th of march, for about 260 accom + lift pass - anyone else gonna be in the area at that time?

Can't seem to get any traction with my mates. Looks like no skiing for me this year. Unless I go alone. Vaguely tempted to quit my job and go out for the remainder of the season. Probably a bit too late now though. Maybe I should opt for redundancy and go.

just sayin: if anyone plans too go to switzerland for skiing: check ''berner oberland'' area.

also i can offer a stay in my flat.
