Angus. What do you particularly like about Canada? I've skied there a few times and find the skiing is good but not great. It is also a long journey, expensive for lift pass and no apres ski worth talking about.

Its a combination of the snow, hospitality and standard of accommodation for me. Ive only ever skied in Whistler, Banff and Lake Lousie and all have been exceptional trips. I agree a journey in a mare, but for me its not an every year ski trip, and when ever Ive done it Ive combined a Canadian City break into the trip. To be honest Brucie Im at my happiest when Ive got my ski's on, I even loved Andorra last year which was a bit of a surprise to me!

Newbie Here. Can someone give me some advice on Chamonix? I'm hoping to get there end of January. Typically, how are conditions around that time? This will only be my 2nd Alps trip. I skied Zermatt two years ago and loved it. Can you someone recommend an Austria resort too? Within a couple of hours from the airport?

Thanks!
