    Don’t be so picky……you only have 10 ski seasons left before global warming wipes it out.

    Try Meribel, and you can travel to other resorts whilst there,
    or why not try the states for a change.

    Sounds like you ought to try some Austrian resorts such as St Anton or Solden.

    You’ve been to Switzerland, but how about Zermatt or Verbier?

    Les Deux Alps, Alp D’Huez, or Serre Chevalier would be your next stop in France or perhaps La Plagne (I’ve not been to La Plagne, but I keep driving past it on the way to Val D’isere).

    I would go to Les Deux Alps if I were you.

    Yeah try the States, or Canada. Stowe is nice but if some of you are under 21 no drinking……staying in Europe my fave places to ski are Tignes and Verbier….but a good all rounder is St. Anton, nightlife is good!!!!
