Ruddles Posted January 29, 2013 Share Posted January 29, 2013 First off, reason i've been missing from the site for a while is that a 2 year relationship with my g/f ended just before Christmas last year. Had a pretty bad time regarding it all and couldn't have come at a worse time; back at college and no job currently. Been through alot and had the opportunity to go boarding in Italy last week with a friend. Just what I needed and really helped to clear my head and help me get over things. Location was Sauze D'Oulx and I'd highly recommend it to anyone thinking or considering a ski holiday. So in true fashion, here are some pics!! Enjoy!! (oh and the chairlift one shows how cold Wednesday was). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ruddles Posted January 29, 2013 Author Share Posted January 29, 2013 Thanks for sorting it AK! Cheers guys! I'd advise anyone going on a ski holiday to invest in a goPro camera though!! Such a pain having to keep taking cameras out of bags and being careful, etc! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dblock Posted January 29, 2013 Share Posted January 29, 2013 Looks great. Is there a snow plough on that building? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bronzee Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 Nothing like mountain air to clear the noggin. Looks brilliant. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VR46 Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 Awesome pics mate!! The mountains are the place to be. I got back from a week boarding in La Plagne France a few weeks back and have missed it every day since! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ruddles Posted January 31, 2013 Author Share Posted January 31, 2013 Too right, I can't recommend it enough!! Really good excercise, great time away from the UK and most importantly a hell of a lot of fun!! Great to take your mind off of things. How did you find France VR46? I went to Tignes in March 2010 and whilst great fun, it was all white, pretty busy and expensive. I can say Italy in Jan wasn't busy at all, not overly expensive and the tree lined runs really break it up nicely . The snow plough on the building is actually a Piste Basher that can transfer a substantial party of people up or down the slopes when needed...like a bus effectively!

I can really recommend La Plagne! It's good for all abilities, you can also ski Les Arch and it's not overly expensive like the three valleys. We went the first week of Jan and the snow was amazing and was pretty quiet. It's also got some good bars for a few beers in the evening! The scenery there as well is stunning! The only thing that was great was the transfer to the resort (which was 3 hours ) as we flew into Geneva but you can fly to Chambery which is only 2 hours. I want to go back!!!

Ruddles Posted February 1, 2013 Author Share Posted February 1, 2013 Only two of us went this year, so it was more slope focused. Going again next year and there should be 10+ so I'd imagine we'll be venturing out for the nightlife a bit more often! I'll keep La Plagne on the list, along with Livigne, St.Anton, Saalbach.
