For Austria: Hintertuxer gletscher (hintertuxergletscher.at) open all
year round. Don't go to Kaprun. Too small. M schreef: Hi, I've been winter skiing twice now, but don't want to wait another year to go again, I've been hearing a bit about summer skiing on glaciers. Now I don't know anything about this, but what's the difference between skiing in summer and winter, is there difference with the snow on glaciers, where are the best resorts for summer skiing, do any travel agents do this or do we have to go direct? Sorry for the many questions, any help would be appreciated. Michele -------------------------------------- Please remove the .nospam. to reply -------------------------------------- |

Hi, I have another question. After getting many replies from people about
places to go for summer skiing, we have finally booked Les 2 Alpes for July. My question is, are we still going to need to take the winter skiing gear, jacket/sallopettes etc, or won't we even use them, not having any clue what the temperature is going to be like? Thanks again Michele -------------------------------------- Please remove the .nospam. to reply -------------------------------------- "Lars" wrote in message ...

I went summer skiing a few years ago. Take your ski gear. At 8am at that altitude the weather is cold, and does become very warm before lunch, however the weather can change dramatically. I'll never forget a sight at the top of La Grand Motte. Five minutes earlier the weather had been fine and sunny. People stepped out at the top of the mountain wearing jeans and t-shirts, without gloves, into a blizzard at minus temperatures. Be aware of falling on sugary snow, it can be painful, as it acts like sandpaper on the skin. Steve "M" wrote in message ... Hi, I have another question.
