I'm glad to hear you had a fab time even though it was early and not as much snow as you would have liked...I love Andorra. It's fabulous when the snow is at its best. :D

Tony,
Why were you only ski-ing in Andorra for 2 days? Were you there for work or something?

OK, so what Ski's did you end up hiring, and were they any good?

Glad you are back safe and well, and had a bit of a blast on some snow. At least I still have another 6 weeks before I get out there :lol:

FQ - a nice pair of Stockli Spirit's like these:

Very grippy, good fun, pretty fast too. I enjoyed them, although narrower than I would have liked but fine in the conditions.

Ally - it was a press trip, hence only being a quick one.

You can see some info on my blog, but here are some images to get started:

So it was overcast and snowing then!

:twisted: Looks like you had a good time of it, even if the snow was a bit thin on the ground.

They were making snow most of the time, but there was enough to get about on. Sun and blue skies - it was gorgeous. Got a bit of a face tan too! I'd go back defo, more snow would make it brilliant as there is so much variety and off piste potential.
