What sort of a season is it in the Eastern Alps?
I'm thinking of taking a couple of weeks after easter to ski a bit further
afield than my normal region (which is around Geneva). We're having a superb season here so far, with snow down to the valleys since the beginning of February, and regular top-ups (mostly at weekends, but you can't have everything). Checking the SCGB reports, it looks as though places like St. Moritz, St. Anton etc, where we would normally think of going, have less than average cover. Does this mean that the conditions we've been getting in the western Alps haven't made it to the east? Can anyone who's actually been there give me some idea of what's been happening in the last few weeks, and what conditions are like now? (I know it may change, but I haven't been watching conditions in that region and I'd like some sort of baseline.) Also: does anyone have recommendations for less well known places to go in the eastern Alps? We're interested in off-piste skiing, perhaps some touring (though not multi-day), and discovering new places, and not much interested in piste skiing, except for access. Haven't skied in the Dolomites, were wondering about Slovenia...? Thanks in advance for info and ideas. Jeremy |
