not really, they run the ice flyer and rotair until then but that's only a couple of runs. The lower runs will have closed by the end of May.

I always end up with mixed feelings, sadness for the end of skiing, and the saying good bye to Austrian friends, and joy for most of the runs down this season.

Sincere thanks to Admin for keeping us all posted with ski forecasts, ~ including those that were accurate!!

Thanks to Bandit and Ise for their sharing of ski gear knowledge.

Many thanks to Pavel for stimulating ski debate.

Thanks to AJ, Swal and others that share my love of Niederau.

Now next season..... Niederau, Utah, Niederau. Hmmm, that means cutting back on my skiing for next year....




Well said Dave, Thanks to everyone for their input and advice, Thanks ise for sharing the lovely photos and your blog, Bandit, Ellistine and Jan for the humor.

I wouldn't count on it, their press release was very careful about stating dates. Apart from the ice flyer etc they said the others would be closing in April with no exact date given. Given it's getting warmer and everyone's gone home I'd not bet on it.

Further to the above,just received this e-mail

Many thanks for your email.

The lifts on Titlis are open at the moment and the conditions are because of snow fall the last few days very good.

It depends on the weather how long the lifts will be open, but for next week it looks pretty good. If you want to inform you short term, please check: www.titlis.ch

Best regards and hopefully see you soon in Engelberg.
