Friends and I like to try a different place each year so... DIY to Morillon Grand Massif. Thanks to Snappzz and Ian Wickham for the info. Like the look of variety of tree lined runs in the Massif compared to the open bowl in Flaine - Variety of runs to suit all levels in party - Although not too fussed with the Cascades run on the video looks just like a narrow track too flat in some places even for nervous friend, but ringing the bell and being taken to the restaurant by sledge sounds ok. Anyway got cheap flights to Geneva the morning they were released and have booked (direct with owner ) a large ski in/out apartment (if snow permits) in Les Esserts.
Very excited !!
Now just need to loose weight and work on the fitness thing again
interesting, and different. Hoping all of you will give us reports on these places you're going to?

Just what Mr B says every morning when he looks at me - or maybe it is the other way round. :wink:

if I'm not skiing then I'm kayaking.

My son skied Sauze with his school at Easter and didn't really see enought due to poor snow so we thought we would give it a try. Totally excited.

I've enjoyed 2 weeks in sauze but both times the snow was pretty poor. It's normal for there sadly. Easter is a time I'd definitely not consider going there with its snow record. Could be better feb, but even if the snow isn't great you'll not have a problem skiing. I've skied on man made white strips in brown fields up there and had a great time.

Once again tied to the horror that is February half term again, but husband, 12 year old son and I are off to Alpe d'Huez for the first time - very excited.

DIY for us as always

'Surface of the Moon' in December for me. EK has been on my bucket list for quite some while now, so it's time to scratch that itch.
