Let's go to Baqueira-Beret!

I want to live there!



:D

Ski Miquel have a nice chalet hotel there, good prices too. A much better record than the alps as well, so they claim.

Aha, Fleet Foxes......

I'm off there at the weekend. Was getting a bit worried because the last snow they had had was just before christmas and since then it's been all man-made snow and no forecast for decent snowfall.

However, this week Baqueira (and most of the Pyrenees) have had over 2 metres and it looks like continuing over the next couple of days.

Cannae wait, just need to work out this muscle I've pulled in my glutes. Lesson to be learnt here, take it easy with the physical activity in the week before you go skiing!

Have a good time and give us a report when you get back. I seriously considered it with Ski Miquel but decided to play it safe. They claim to have a higher snow record than many major alpine resorts over the years, but not convinced myself. A bit like Andorra I guess?

As for exercise before you go......thats a definite no no, apart from a few stretches and squats maybe.

Hi! Thought I would add a link from last years promo video.... :)
