Verbier,Switzerland 2002 - Snowboarding in the Alps |
|
Snowboarding
in Austria was great , but last year a whole group of us decided to skiing/Snowboarding
in the Alps, and to get a huge chalet for all of us. So in March 2002
, 14 of us headed over to Verbier in Switzerland for a weeks skiing. (Somehow
I managed to get another week off work) We went with Skiworld and part
of the deal was that we would all stay in 1 huge Chalet, complete with
chalet staff, all meals and unlimited wine (excellent) The chalet was
really beautiful, clean and in a great location near the slope. Verbier
was quite warm, and the snow was not as good as it could have been, but
higher up, the snow was excellent. To top it off, we had loads of snow
on the last 3 days , and that made conditions excellent. Probably the
best boarding I have ever had in my life. |
