Who is going skiing and where 2015?
Discussion
Got to Verbier yesterday and had a full day out today.
All pistes open and conditions pretty good. Off Piste looks poor. It's as quiet as I can remember it.
The village is very quiet and JESUS WEPT the recent strengthening of the CHF has made it ludicrously expensive. It was merely very expensive before.

So you won't be in the Farm Club EVERY night this trip then? All pistes open and conditions pretty good. Off Piste looks poor. It's as quiet as I can remember it.

Getting old!Tonight I fancy an enormous burger/wings combo from offshore then early back to the flat to watch the 4 episodes of Count Arthur Strong series 1.
Living it large!
Went over to Sevier/4 valleys today. Pistes nowhere near as good, plus the light is pretty flat as well. I'm on a pit stop at Le Dahu so that's probably it for me.
Flying home tomorrow, back for the madness that is half term and will try and sneak another couple of days before then.
After trying to find a week when our group are all free, we have only one week this year starting on the 21st March! Probably going back to St Anton if conditoins continue to improve but we will wait until the last minute and chase the snow. I hope we can have similar conditions that we experienced in 2013. We went on the 23rd March and had 4 days of powder and 3 of them were blue sky. Fingers crossed.

I think they are around. And yet there was a holiday supplier on the radio last week gushing over all the cheap deals to be had......again.....Going to in a fully catered chalet in 2 weeks, including flights £369. Only booked last week , but we do the same thing every year.
Been with the same company every year for 15 + years so know it's good as well, helps that I now know all of their chalets , but they are all close to lifts .

Where's the chalet?
This one is in Le Praz less than 5 mins from the lift stationThey have 3 small chalets , all close together
They also have a lot of chalets in La Plagne , tried it once but didn't like the skiing at all.

When my folks where having to bare the cost of three young kids we always went with Silver Ski and have stayed in all those chalets in Le Praz.
Glad to hear they're still offering great value.
Le Praz itself is a great way of accessing the 3 val without the wallet busting of Coucheval or Meribel. Will do the same when the kids are older.

Those chalets look pretty basic and small ? Do they have saunas and hot tubs/spas?They have 3 small chalets , all close together
