Title: Ski Holiday! Post by: Danjackson10 on Sunday, October 2, 2005, 20:46:07 Me and a few mates want to go skiing next year! Anyone know of any good places? 7 days of booze and bombing it down the slopes!
Title: Ski Holiday! Post by: Kinky Tom on Monday, October 3, 2005, 11:55:02 Well it looks like I shall probably be staying in Val Thorens for the season, so if I am there and you decide to go there too I could show you around.
600km of piste, great off-piste and great night-life too apparently. It's generally a resort full of Scandinavians and British, rather than French and Germans so will be easier to communicate.

I went to Val Torens for my birthday and New Years a few years ago and it was skill. :D Great snow and the night life is superb. :beers: Isn't it the highest resort in Europe? Title: Ski Holiday!

It takes 15 minutes fewer to transfer to Casa though - that's the only difference I can find appart from hire being a few quid cheaper in Casa. If I had to choose for myself I'd go to Casa, I've always wanted to go there. Title: Ski Holiday! Post by: Danjackson10 on Monday, October 3, 2005, 22:02:09 Cool, i will check those out mate!
