The other side Admittedly it can’t rival the West for that big-mountain experience, it doesn't try. But, says Graeme Spratley, the small resorts and bewitching scenery of New England make a road trip here a true American original.

Revel in Revelstoke

Revelstoke_main Revelstoke, USA

Patrick Thorne was wary about the hype surrounding this latest addition to the super league of North American destinations but was quickly won over by the authentic charm of the existing town and the sheer gob-smacking quality of the skiing…

Skiing in the Indian Himalayas

Indus-Ski-Himalaya Goodness gracious ski

Arctic conditions (indoors), avalanche danger, no pistes and the total absence of après as we know it didn’t stop James Wallman getting high in the Indian Himalayas.

Claviere

Italy’s ultimo resort

Claviere, the tiny Piedmontese village at the skinny end of the Franco-Italian ski superarea the Via Lattea, or Milky Way, is where it seems 1980s skiwear goes to die. One-pieces in combinations of jade green, salmon pink, Cadbury’s purple with fuchsia and yellow fluoro details, pepper the uncrowded slopes and sun terraces. It’s like Wham! never split up.

My Slopes: Meribel

MSMeribel Fish and Pips

Back in 2006, Game London gals Philippa and Holly set up the gourmet chalet company Fish and Pips in Meribel. Read their insiders' guide to the boozy bars and world class slopes they call the office.

Destination of the month

Lying at the heart of the massive Three Valleys ski area, Méribel is one of the most popular resorts in the Alps. It has 200 lifts and 600km of well groomed pistes and is ideal for intermediates – but like all the big resorts, caters for the less experienced extremely well. Boarders and free skiers have two parks and access to five more in the other Three Valleys resorts. The main village kept a rustic chalet feel during the building boom of the Seventies and many of the traditional buildings have been recently refurbished to the highest standards. The resorts is famous for its high spirited après scene.

Honest Snow Reports

st Anton
Bluebird powder day today! Loads of snow, though lots of it quite wind affected, everywhere. Rauz was excellent and Zurs still had fresh lines to be had when I left this afternoon. It was getting pretty warm today later on so the snow will be firm and crusty tomorrow but should be excellent by midmorning.
Morzine
Conditions were perfect on Thursday as we headed to the furthest point on the piste map - Torgon! The restaurant at the top of the Tronchey chair has amazing views over Lake Geneva and is definetely worth the several (very quiet) drag lifts it takes to get there. Linga and Plaine Dranse on the way back over were very busy and we should expect this to continue now until the end of February. But it is dumping today and more snow is forecast tomorrow so the pre-half term week should be pretty cool...
Serre Chevalier
DUMPING! The snow has finally started falling after nearly two weeks of sunshine. Since Thursday evening we've had over 40cm. It's still snowing up the mountain and it looks set to continue tonight!
Tignes
Good fall of fresh yesterday, about 30cm which let off about 10pm last night - unfortunately down at the airport today but looked like it was going to be an epic day at 5am this morning!
Verbier
It snowed for a full 24hours yesterday! From 6am on Friday all the way through till this morning! BIG FLUFFLY FLAKES! Its officially a Bluebird Powder day in Verbier! Fat Skis are out!!
St Anton
It snowed AGAIN heavily last night, about 3 inches as far as resort, not yet been up top yet as Ahlenmahder, Schindler and Valfagher bahns are all closed at the moment. On a word of warning, anyone coming out here and skiing off piste take note there have been 4 avalanche deaths in the last three days and more burials that were dug out, significantly in Hinter Rendl. You can check local avalanche conditions at http://lawine.tirol.gv.at/english/
Winter Park, Colorado
5.5" reported this AM, the Mary Jane side of the mountain was pretty sweet actually. I am heading to Jackson Hole, the mecca of steep and burly skiing to ski Monday - Wednesday. They have received twice as much snow as Winter Park this season. Perhaps I'll just stay. Read my account of surviving an avalanche here.
