ve been reading through

I’ve been reading through the World Snowboarding Guide 2004 (online here) to track down some likely looking places for snowboarding trips next year. Whilst looking for a piste map I came across SkiMaps.com which has a good collection of maps. I’m planning to use it to help me work out a) how many drag lifts/t-bars I’m going to have to negotiate to get around the mountain and b) how many easy/intermediate runs there are.

And whilst talking about winter holidays, I noticed that there is an interesting article over at Guardian Winter Sports about how to package your trip online which looks to have some interesting links. I picked up a copy of The Independent at the weekend and their ski section had a couple of links to tailor-made trip organisers – Ski Independence, Ski Safari and Momentum Ski – all of which look pretty useful for road trips.
