When are you comming in europe ? Because now, snow condition are really bad... You can go in Tignes (France) or SAAS FEE (switzerland) ... they are the only resort open until november. If you are coming around the 1st of november, there is the " mondial du ski " in "les deux alpes" one of the biggest meeting of the world every year at the same period. Good opportunity to try new ski for free...If you need more info, ask me...

There are several resorts open or opening this weekend which actually have a proper park unlike Tignes right now.
Zermatt, Saas-Fee, Hintertux, Les Diablerets, Kaunertal have sick parks and the first 3 are open as we speak, the other two open saturday.
and without park you also got Sölden, Pitztal, Stubai and whatnot, all open with fresh snow.
Sorry 2 b sounding like I'm dissin u but false information should be set straight.

Ok. I was sure for france not for switzerland...anyway... however,I think that only Saas Fee is open everyday, but in my opinion , snow condition are really bad everywhere. last info, they will probably build the snowpark in tignes for next week end end.

stop thinking!!!
Zermatt and Hintertux are open daily, year-round, and as we speak.
(something Saas-Fee and Tignes cannot say cuz they close a couple of months)

Conditions in Switzerland and Austria are excellent right now, lots of fresh snow and excellent parks. The halfpipe in Zermatt last Sunday was even better than the pipe in Snowpark NZ in august!
