ski the alps

Can someone recommend a great ski guide in Chamonix, France? Expert skiers looking for a great and safe off-piste adventure. Thanks Nd feel free to PM me with recommendations.

Is Beartooth Basin (next to Yellowstone) any good? How is Timberline (Mt.Hood) this year with apparently low snowpack? I assume it has to freeze overnight (a function of clear skies) for the hardpack skiing conditions to form. Early July? Is Bariloche worth a $1500 plane ticket?

@Pat AKA mustski's query, https://www.pugski.com/posts/338013/ motivated me to kick-off this TR. Departing with my son on Saturday. My wife is already in Venice and marveling at all there is to see. A little background, in case you’re interested and have not read...

Just got this from a friend who lives in Kitz. The skier is an ex German National Team guy who can really ski.

Wasn’t sure where to post this, here or Backcountry. Anyone interested in Chamonix and, in particular, Grand Montets? Cable car to tip not operational, so... no riders at the top who won’t skin and climb up. I’m thinking Lognan Refuge. Early morning starts up. Or early morning empty slopes to...

Resorts like Verbier are opening some slopes, some resorts say this the earliest they have ever opened. Could be another magnificent snow year in Europe.

I apologize in advance if this thread is in the wrong place. Looking to take the wife possibly to ski Europe next year. Are there any travel agents that specialize in all inclusive trips? Any recommendations on destinations? I am an advanced skier she is an intermediate so not looking to take...

So, who's skiing in Europe this winter? This thread is for general discussion, whether it's questions on where to go and logistics or just general bragging about your plans. Feel free to post away.

We arrived the Saturday before Easter, early morning and were off to St. Anton. It was zero visibility but we lucked out as the skies opened up briefly in St. Anton with Sun poking through - skied Galzig, Rendl, and Valluga I all on piste as it was day 1. Next day was blizzard central, whiteout...

I have been thinking that it would be fun to meet European friends for a ski trip in the Alps. I have visited Austria several times and the Italian Dolomites twice, all in summer, and really enjoyed the scenery, the culture, the alm huts etc. On the other hand, skiing is so condition dependent...

I am new to PugSki.com and was on Epic for some time; wealth of information, I hope I can give back somehow this season. I need new skis for an upcoming BASI Level 2 instructors course. I have read the various reviews of the Head Rally and Stockli AX and both sound like great fun with the...

Greetings All- Guess I'm jonesing for some runs and have a free weekend in Europe. I have the option of spending a weekend either in St. Petersburg Russia or near Innsbruck, Austria. Timing will be mid July, which probably limits my options. Anyone know of any open glacier ski areas this...

Please post any personal experiences,leads,conditions and updates. Mainly interested hearing about Italy/Dolomites, Austria/Tyrol, Italy/Cervinia and France/Savoie. Thank you all
