Hiya people

Our families plans of La Tania were messsed up when the company changed the departure day so we have ended up getting a chalet in Les Deux Alpes!

Could y'all give me some info on the area? Whats the skiing like etc etc

And also is it possible to ski from Les Deux Alpes into Le grave? Is there guides that you can hire in Les Deux or did you need to travel round to the base or Le Grave?

Cheers

Chris

You don't need more then one pair of sallo's and a jacket! You're only going for a week so there's no need for more! I would have said a good set of thermal bases and maybe a roll neck or a fleecy type top should be enough! But as ross has said lots of thin layers is best as they can be removed!

I think the point about extremes of weather is very valid, because what

i believe it was above scotland last summer rather then further up north above the ocean, this in turn was linked to the flooding in tewkesbury, oxfordshire and gloucester aswell as other areas!

I play rugby so training for that aswell as the gym tends to keep me fairly fit! But there always those muscles used skiing that seem to be used by any other sport!!!!

Ski amade region! The Salzburg Sportwelt area.

Was excellent! As you can see there was a huge dumping of snow! The valley floor was bare before and then that happened!
