You know what, i think id pretty much go anywhere and i bet others would too.
The venue is not really ever going to be the issue, its the date as we all have lives.

I'd do the 3V

Jesus Christ......that looks VERY steep, is it just the camera angle or was it that bad? The othe pics don't look so bad.

Thanks Snapzzz :D

I was totally taken in by what the La Clusaz tourist board website said, which was this:

La Clusaz and Manigod are located on the north-west flank of the Aravis massif. This favourable position gives them a combined average snowfall of more than 6 metres at an altitude of 1,860 metres.

You're quite right - La Clusaz village IS at 1100m - but that doesn't sound too bad to me. However, maybe I need to check out its snow record, and wait for some replies from J2Skiers who have been there.

It does look a nice resort and Crystal (hate them now though) are doing free lift passes all season there.

We did xmas in ADH this year and i was VERY disappointed. I won't ski xmas again.
I found that there were no celebrations at all, it seemed just like any normal day.
This year we are staying home to eat quality street and drink too much cheap plonk before setting out for ski time over new year.

La Clusaz is on my list for Feb 2013 but Ally i believe the village is at 1100m not 1800. so i wont be booking until last minute.

No sarcasm intended, this time -)

It wouldn't be for me though.

:shock:

Certainly wouldn't be for me either. Ski area looks far too limited.

As you consider N to be perfect for the 2014 trip would you be going ?

I was under the impression that you had a dislike of N, unless you mean its the perfect choice for all members excluding yourself,

Sarcasm Brooksy, after 500+ posts you should be becoming acclimatised to Mr H round about anytime now.

This was where my mate Phil spent the night at Geneva airport after we were diverted and all roads were closed Jan 2010

Blimey, i don't think i'd dare try that - even for a funny pic.
I would be worried that some jobsworth would catch me and all hell break loose. I'm sure they would find i way to imply i was tampering with security kit and therefore must be plotting to bring down a snow jet.
