1. Kirkwood

2. Arosa

3. Difficult but could be between Val D'Isere, Engelberg, Heavenly, Saas Fee, St Anton, Kitzbuhel, Sierra at Tahoe, Solden, Les Menuires (for the La Masse sector) or even Alpe D'Huez and Cervinia.

By the way, what is this 'chillax'?

I assume we are talking top 3 we have been to, as oppose to top 3 we want to go to?

Ok:

1: St Moritz
2: Verbier
3: St Anton


I don't think you can get much better than that. I loved Monterosa but in terms of whats on offer etc I think these 3 take the biscuit

That's an interesting one. Went to St. Moritz on the 'peasants'' day-trip from Livigno,and while it was very nice for a day, i never got the feeling that I would want to spend a week there. However (and this may interest you, Tony), I have read recently that it's a bit of a hidden gem as far as off-piste opportunities go. Apparently the 'toffs' don't go in for the old off-piste in a big way, so fresh snow can remain un-tracked for 'yonks', while in the more obvious off-piste 'Meccas' it can be tracked out the same day.

Still scratching my head over my top 3. What I can say is , 'I've never had a bad ski-holiday'. It won't make my final list but I think the most fun I ever had was in Borovets: a fantastic crowd of us (10 from Manchester and 3 from Glasgow). Some of us had never met before, but we got on like the proverbial house on fire from the moment we all met at Sofia airport. Proves that while the choice of resort can be important, the choice of company is even more so.
