As newbies contemplating a ski vacation in Austria this year, where do you recommend we go? We're expert skiers, black and double black.
If an expert skiier likes Whistler...what would he like in Austria?

Altough St Anton is the only place in Austria I've been (except 34 years ago when I was 11 and I can't remember where that was) I would agree with bandit and reccommend it. ( Not that we consider ourselves experts!) We had a fab time and will definitely go back at some point. :-)

I am going to St Anton 4th Jan, so cant talk from experience yet, but I think thats where you ought to consider going.

Thanks to all who have replied.
Funny coincidence: I just discovered that my neighbour 2 blocks away grew up in Munich, and cut his teeth in the Aus alps! He's a DBD/ backcountry skier at Whistler, like our household.
(Yes, a real live neighbour--someone I can actually visit in person, and I don't have to register or use a password to do so!) (Although I suppose I could go in disguise....) Hahahaha
Anyway, I digress. I'll put the question to him over the next few days and see what he comes up with: to compare and contrast St Anton with other suggestions.
Watch this space.
