This sounds awesome. I am trying to book something today for Christmas, may take a wee look.

I have never had a six day ski pass for less than 140 €.

Evening all, saw the post by this place offering a 20% discount and am empted for Christmas week.

Accomodation is for 3 (between 20th and 27th December) and seems to be reasonably priced. Its B&B and that suits us as we will be there approx 8 hours a day to sleep.

What I need to know is the exact location of this place, I want to be within reasonable walking distance of the village of an evening.

Anyone know this place, got any inside knowledge? Is it a good idea at Christmas?

Ta.

How about Chile? Fly to Santiago, and the resorts are about 90 mins out.

I wanted to try and get there this summer, but work got in the way.

I like Snowfix, keeps me in the mood. I thought it was also available on Extreme TV.

Saw one of these guys in Mayrhofen for Snowboming, looking to me, a little worse for wear :lol:

Which hat?

Right, budget version below.

i have to factor in all the clothes aswell!

So far I have....a jacket and 2 hats.

Im guessing il need (per person):

warm socks (2 pairs per day?) 2 pairs for one week, just wash em in the shower every night
waterproof trousers (how many sets would 1 do the week?) one
stuff for your legs underneath (what do you guys use?) one, buy in resort dependant on weather - approx 20 quid should do youthermal t shirt (again how many?)
thermal jumper (same as above) [color=red]onejacket (1?)one, you have one
goggles one
hat (1?)one
gloves (1?)one

i guess the more trips you have the more clothes you have but whats the minimum you would advise for my first trip?

Sunglasses, preferably something that will not shatter, UVEX do glasses that are both very good for UV, and are not so unnatractive quite cheaply. There is nothing worse in my opinion than goggle on a fine sunny day!

thanks all

What on earth is this thread about?

Never been, but I am guessing it's big and white.
