Wagrain-april

Ok so off with school to wagrain in april holidays and was just thinking about clothing, in particular gloves.

I've only skiied in febuary and january so was thinking it would be quite warm when i'll be skiing so was wondering about what you regular spring skiiers wear whilst skiing in the spring.

Didn't want to fork out loads of money but something reasonable, preferably waterproof if not i'll just not fall over! )

Ok seen as nobody has answered my original post! ) I would like to pose another question to you fellow snow lovers!

Has anybody been to wagrain or any of the local resorts i.e. Flachau, Filzmoos, Zauchenesse??

I would just like some info on the area please really what's the skiing like, lift standards, snow in recent years at this time of the year??

Just general info please folks

Thanks in advanced

Chris

I've skied in Filzmoos 3 times!! Cool little village but very limited skiing, but whats there is good.

Can't comment for the rest of the Ski Amade cos i havent skied it, but Filzmoos is a nice little area!

Ok so we've skied 3 days now and i'm loving it! My favourite trip ever! Get an amazin instructor and a wicked ski group! Having great fun in the trees with snow up to the waist!
Had a massive dump sunday night and all day monday which made for some excellent skiing!

Speak soon when i'm back

Austrian food isnt usually that bad....

thanks for that reply tony certainly made me laugh!

First time i've been able to speak as i only got back from rugby tour late last night!

Had the best skiing week i've ever had!

The conditions weren't too bad warm other then the monday when it snowed, snowed and snowed some more!

Really learnt how to off piste ski in the trees with powder up to the waist! Had a amazing skiing group where we messed about alot but still learnt lots from our Dutch instructor in his final season so he enjoyed himself alot aswell!

Has really cemented the fact that i want to do at least a couple of seasons in a resort instructoring so all in all a fantastic trip!

cheers
