Well, its getting to that time again, when we all risk censure from the IT department for checking snow forecasts 4 times an hour when we should be checking spreadsheets.
I will, once again, be spending the season in Soldeu, Andorra, and will be more than happy to assist any riders heading for that part of the world in the coming season.
This is my fifth season in the valley, and I can thoroughly recommend the area to skiers of any ability.
I will post regular updates on conditions, local forecasts and social events on this thread. Please do not hesitate to post any queries you may have.
Here's to a fantastic season.

Have a good season, Brucie. First decent week of lessons I had was in Soldeu. And my first day on skis with a stinking hangover. That hurt....a lot.

Hi Brucie

My wife and I will be in Soldeu last week in January

haven't done the Granvalira for about 15 years so interested to see how it has evolved (to be fair that was Pas with the lads so different times)

I shall no doubt be picking your brains nearer the time
