Yeah anywhere where the snow is good, you can't make snowmen :D
Did you find it was extremely expensive? helsinki was but as its the capital i thought it might be abnormally hiked prices. (reindeer is awesome!!) |

Great pics!!
Looks like a really cool place, will definitely take a look up there myself one day with my newfound love for Finland (even though ive only been once :lol: ) |

Sounds awesome!!
When did you fly out? I flew out from Gatwick on Sat 17th on a 6:20am flight with Easyjet to Helsinki, may well have been there at the same time! North Terminal? Yeah the Finns are lovely people, they certainly were in Helsinki anyway! |

Engelberg would be top of my list (never been to any of the ones you mentioned Tony). Lenzerheide looks cool as well....

If you are so worried about Canada have warm weather (Europe has just had it for the past two weeks as well) head to a snowdome where its always cold.

Generally feet closer together (worked for me first time), drive the feet further forward. In deep powder people are often way too far back or too forward. Steer the skis as you always would.
None of those stupid tight S turns.....massive fast wide turns, rather like GS turns, down a steep face :D |

Seems everyone is going to Finland on Saturday! I am as well, but unfortunately no skiing for me :(
-20 sounds cold but its fine to ski in as long as you protect your face with a facemask or something. And just hope its not windy :lol: |
