The lights in the home or in the head!

In the head, for sure. When you look at a bloke and the eyes are glazed and unfocused, but they've not had a drink (or 10) :lol:
May be acompanied by a daft grin )

I guess it's the luck of the draw. I have had two holidays to Saas Fee, and not suffered any closures. Great village, stunning scenery, and varied ski area :D

Suggestions for France: La Clusaz, Megeve, Les Contamines, St Gervais, La Rosiere.

For Italy: Cervinia, Pila, Cormayeur, Santa Caterina

For Austria: Mayrhofen, Zell am See, Lech

Heaps of choice, time to define what you want from your resort.
:D

Trencher

So, if I look at a bloke and observe that the lights are on, but no one's home, they're likely visualising a WC run.
If you say so :lol:

From the stuff I've been reading online, conditions have been epic if you like fresh deep powder. For lovers of blue sky and hardpack it's been awful :D

Another vote for Bardonecchia. I went there after 4 hours instruction on a dry ski slope. I had an excellent time. Lots of long gentle slopes.

We were all there on Sunday, Neil, Claire, Julie and me, not bad skiing. Yesterday as well but that was just mad, actual queues for the lifts :roll: Much quieter today at Zinal but the snowpack is very unstable, fresh snow some of which is slightly wet and a lot of wind transport makes for some dangerous conditions. It'll take some time, given the current forecast, for some of the bigger lines to come back into condition.

Queues :shock: Tourists!, still part of their experience is standing in line, and they are helping to fund the developments :D

I'm hoping for quiet slopes and great conditions for the season finale. In the meantime, please guard the pow closely, I'll be there just as soon as I can :D

More snow forecast for next week ATM.....
