Get on your phone (If it will play flash) or if you have an iphone there are a number of snow report apps which give webcam views.

Snapzz I was in ADH over xmas two seasons ago and everything was open. The top lift was only open twice all week due to bad visibility up top but apart from that it was all good and I'm sure it will be the same this year.

Have a good trip

The cheapest I have ever managed was about $65, its roughly between $60 – 90 depending on resort etc. But beware if you go with a cheaper one then they do tend to be unorganised. The last one I had left us standing at the airport for about an hour waiting for another flight to come in and on the way back we had to get a taxi to a bus stop in the middle of know where and stood for about 30 mins waiting for the bus.

Could all J2Ski Snow Dancers please stand down until further notice? you have been heard! 8)

... and breathe.

10-4 Rodger that Snow Dancing will now cease, guess that means I should get off my desk and start doing some work :thumbup:

Serre chevalier 2007 last week of the season. We had a massive dump of snow overnight and this was to be my first time in what I would class as 'deep powder'. So up early we headed out and it was great fun, by the time it reached mid afternoon the sun was out and we were all pretty tired from keeping the front of the boards out of the powder but having great fun. Anyway we came off the lift (Can't remember which) and instead of taking the marked run turned to go off piste. At the bottom of the stretch (It was only about 100m or so) there was a massive group of people so I set off first, full of confidence in my new found powder skiing skills. I got half way down and started to scream with delight causing people to turn and look. About 10m from the bottom my tired legs gave way and the front of my board dug in sending me into a front flip. I landed on my head causing stars, when I came to I was surrounded by about 10 people making sure I was ok.

Wouldn't of been so bad if I hadn't screamed, very embarrassing.

Well thanks for the input everyone, you have given me a lot to consider. I need to weight up my options, time to break out the excel spreadsheet and get crunching the figures i think

Tres bon!

My god the top pic on the link of the guy carrying his ski's is ridiculous, its knee height with another 40cm on top of that. My god I need to go skiing right now. :lol:

I have two lenses for mine which cover both sets of conditions. I just pop in the one which will suit the days forecast the best. If you go to the anon website they have a section that describes tints in detail.
