Yo

So, after 4 years away from the slopes I was looking forward to having a slide this year. Not long after booking the holiday, I suffered a knee injury which required surgery. Thought I was making good progress but for some reason, recovery has stalled and I now can no longer make my trip.

What I having going is two spaces at a half board catered chalet in Morzine, about 10 mins walk from the Super Morzine Bubble, booked for w/c 13th March (this Sunday). Also includes transfers to and from. Would require you sharing the chalet with 8 other lads (who I was going with as part of the group). I can ask about changing name on flights or you could look at booking them yourself. It's the 7.05am EasyJet flight out from Luton.

Anyone interested, PM for details etc

How about just going and enjoying the mountains? I spent a whole winter in Chamonix unable to ski downhill. Worst case you get to miss out on some tall stories about this deep/fast/steep etc.

1) Skiing uphill / skinning is possible long before you can go downhill and great for knee rehab (no lift pass required).
2) Ski towns are really quite pleasurable once people have departed for the slopes. Great breakfasts, long lunches.
3) Rehab takes time and suddenly you will have lots of it, go swimming, gym, snow shoeing.

Skiing is great, but it is the mountains which make it. You don't need to be fit to enjoy them.
