Pragelato or if you're Italian (well half italian) like me Pra'gelato is near Turin, close to the Albergian Mountain. It hosted the Cross-Country and Nordic skiing events in the 2006 Winter Olympics in Torino (In Feb), so it definately does exist. It has good Cross-Country Skiing and a ski jump (if you're into that sort of thing). I've just come back from Italy (visiting relatives, didn't manage to get to Ski :-( going to St Wolfgang in 11 days tho :-) ) and it seems that skiing in Italy in general is pretty good, although the Dolomites and the Eastern Alps have more snow than the Western Alps. Piancavallo near to my relatives has great snow, along with Cortina D'Ampezzo. Bolzano is also living it up with fresh snow. As for the Western Alps and Pragelato, they are having snow i believe, although i'm not sure of the exact details, you might consider looking at the details for Sestriere as that is quite nearby. Have Fun!
