I know it's too early to tell how much snow will fall this year, but I was wondering whether there would normally be any resorts still open at the end of April, either Europe, Canada or USA? Also, with Easter falling in late April 2011 would that make any resorts that are open very busy?

Norway - Hemsedal is usually open through to the May day holiday. I presume the others do too.

Tignes or val thoren but you might have too do it independent as tour operators have stopped by then due to lack of punters

Hi,


Les Arcs last skiable day is the 30th April from memory , and Val D'isere/Tignes is about the 6th May or there abouts...you could also look at Val thorens , Serre Chevaliere , Chamonix.

I think if the weather goes to plan , more or less anywhere above 1800m should be good anywhere, with mainly North , North,North East slopes and a glacier.

Iv heard you can ski in saas fee - switzerland pretty much all year round, iv also heard warren smith does a instructor course from July to September so the snow must be good in April surely.
