I am traveling late in the season (March 21-26th) so snow conditions is my foremost concern.
Choices--
(no western resorts like St Anton as my trip has to be within 5 hours of Bratislava)
Schladming
Obertauern
Molltal Glacier
Kaprun Glacier (Zell Am See)
Kitzbuhel (scared of the lack of snow)
Importance
1) Snow conditions-- lots of good snow!
2) Lots of "Advanced-intermediate" piste / off-piste and glade skiing
3) Scenery
Guys please help, which resort / glacier to choose??!!
Thank you!

aren't glaciers made of snow that's fallen out of the sky then? )
Thanks, but I have to book something shortly...
I don't need powder specifically on the glacier but either on the slopes or glacier. ;)
I most certainly didn't write that ) I've only had one glass of wine :shock:

Ask me about 5 days before you arrive. Powder on a glacier is not common. It can be throwing it down in resort or on the slopes whilst a glacier above gets a sprinkling. That being said, for the most varied terrain I would go to the Hintertux.

you probably want to turn the junk filter off otherwise you'll miss half the posts :D :D
Anyway, how about the Zillertal and Hintertux? Wouldn't that be within 5 hours of Bratislava? I presume that's anywhere east of Innsbruck basically.
