Early Fall skiing in Europe? +K

[BrewskiJr]

Ok. I'm studying abroad this fall up until Mid December. What ski resorts are the best for early fall in Western Europe? I'm already planning a trip to Chamonix in November, but what resort will give me the best bang quality snow in october, november, december? +K For advice

saas fee has upper slopes open throughout the autumn, as does les 2 alpes, alpe duez(sp), pretty much anywhere with a glacier will have skiing in the autumn..

Les 2 Alpes has the Mondial du Ski usually in Oct/Nov on their glacier. If you travel a bit further east into Austria/Germany, they tend to have great parks set up on their glaciers at that time of year.

I like stubai glacier, its in austria, but they usually have an awesome park there.

There's several glacier's in Europe that are really good:

- Led Deux Alps - FR

- Alpe D'Huez - FR

- Chamonix - FR

- Saas Fee - CH

- Laax - CH

- Kitzsteinhorn - AT

- Hintertux - AT

There's enough to choose from. Apart from Chamonix (or at least I don't know about Cham) they all have pretty nice parks.

I've been to Hintertux, l2a and Kitzsteinhorn, and I'd prefer Kitzsteinhorn.

Hintertux for jumps, Kitzsteinhorn for rails etc.
