Day 6 – Saturday 6 February

2010-02-06T23:36:45+00:00February 6th, 2010|

Last night we had another foot of snow! We couldn’t wait to get out on our skies and play in the powder. The GCSE students benefited from an earlier start than the other groups as they were videoed for their coursework practical and they skied on untouched runs in perfect weather [...]

Day 5 – Friday 5 February

2010-02-06T00:37:59+00:00February 5th, 2010|

Today proved to be a perfect ski day after having a few more inches of snow overnight. Fresh snow meant increased confidence and all came back to lunch full of joie de vivre. Today we managed to ski with some of the students from the top group and we enjoyed watching [...]

You think it’s been cold in England … well, it’s freeeeeeeeezing here! Minus 15! However the snow was amazing; cold and squeaky! Perfect conditions to learn to ski. The instructors were very impressed with the two beginners groups and they managed to get out of the main bowl and even higher [...]
