its good at the moment, nice and cold, but look at that freezing level rise :x . Its a problem for the whole of the Alps at the moment. Hardly and snow in most places, and rising temperatures slightly.
Worst skiing presents

Only ski related things i got for Christmas was the DVD Corduroy, which is really good. I got some boots about 6 weeks ago that my Christmas money has partly paid for. I got mainly money which i will probably use for some new salopets/ski pants before i ski in Feb.
Thats alright tho! Winter is definately best, although i do like my summer holidays to. but if it came down to just 2 weeks holiday a year, winter or summer, it would be winter any day!!
Andorra in Jan?

It would be even more perfect if it showed lots of snow coming!!!

Unfortunately not though :cry: :cry:
must be an anomoly in Austria then, i know people who have been to Obergurgl and loved it, but everyone has their own personal views.

You are so lucky getting so ski all the time!! Obergurgl a few weeks ago, Val Thorens next week, La Clusaz in January..... im jealous :cry: lol
Nice, i have a mate who is going to La Clusaz in Feb half term. He has been there once before in easter 2005 and loved it, although there was basically no snow below about 1600m, what was there was artificial and patchy (lots of grass and rock dodging!!). I am only skiing once this year unfortunately :cry:

ps. Which resort in Austria did you go to that gave you a bad experience??
A tough one for me, but i think i'd say Austria. I love the friendly atmosphere their ski resorts have, their excellent ski schools and lovely hotels. The Austrians just seem the most welcoming to guests. And of course the skiing is good to!! Austria tends to get a lot of snow, despite many of the resorts being at around 1000m or below
