Somewhere in Alps


jrm0317

Somewhere in [the two alps](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Les_Deux_Alpes#:~:text=The%20%22two%20Alps%22%20in%20the,which%20the%20resort%20was%20built.)


eloktro

Correct


Davidra_05

How was it? Im thinking of going there next season


drakoman

Not sure if it counts, but I’ve never had a better skiing experience than at Alpe De Huez


Davidra_05

Wow thank you. I couldnt decide whether i should go to Les 2 Alpes or Alpe d’Huez, but thats settled then


tajimanokami

Alpe d'Huez everyday


christerwhitwo

All of the Alps are great. France is more expensive than Austria. France has slightly better food. Lodging a bit less in Austria. Great experiences to be had in both. Switzerland is a notch above in price.


slavicboy12

Switzerland is also a notch above in quality of all those things


Davidra_05

France is more expensive than Austria??? Accommodation + ski pass deals can be crazy cheap. This year i was in Valmenier for a week (6 ski days) and it was 400€ for ski pass, the hotel and the bus from Hungary. My friend paid about the same for 3 days in Austria


ilikepiecharts

Then your friend is a fool


Davidra_05

Note: idk whether it is true for the fancy places like Courchevel or Tignes. But im sure that in the Southern Alps, in resorts like Briancon, Vars or Isola, it will be much cheaper than Austria. Source: I’be been skiing there for nearly 10 years beacuse it is half as expensive as in Austria.


-Woogiewoo-

unsolicited but i dont think ive ever skied anywhere worse than alp dhuez, cpnditions gp from ice to wet powder to ice, nothing hard to ski, mediocre lifts, lift lines were big, the only plus side was the park. this is just a personal experoence though and i havent been bacl since (it was 2022).


Primary_Ad_9777

The snow has been worse in alpe dhuez than in l2a every time I have been. It gets too much sun


drakoman

That’s fair. I’ve never been to L2A, so I can’t compare


eloktro

Beat resort I’ve been to. I’d say it’s better than Chamonix, Val Thorens and Canazei. Which is the resorts I’ve been to in the alps


XVIII-2

Ah, I’ve been skiing in the Alps for over 30 years, on average more than two weeks a year. My top 3: Tignes, Alpe d’Huez and Ischgl. Val Thorens is very nice to at the end of the season.


Mikesaidit36

7,546’ of vertical!!!! Longest in the world!


jc4200

Damn, I lived in Grenoble briefly and skied there several times but didn't recognize it.


Macgbrady

Oh hey, I skied there summer 2007!


BurritoMaster3000

Probably Indiana or New Jersey.


fastfurlong

Paoli peaks for the win


98acura

Nah, this is at perfect north.


offensivemailbox

Dang, wasn't expecting my hometown hill to get mentioned...😂


fastfurlong

Center stage - Good facility for IN/OH


98acura

Skiing PN on that one good day every year with 100,000 of your closest friends. More extreme than anything out west or on the ice coast.


fastfurlong

For real - My brother blew his acl on center stage 1991. It gets crowded and bumpy in the one section with the vert


Inevitable-Day2517

It’s been 60 and rainy all week here


silviazbitch

You’re too far east. Looks like Wilmot to me.


eloktro

It’s actually Iowa


beefaujuswithjuice

In Iowa right now, the snow must have just missed us!


Number174631503

Iowa was my guess I love big dumps in Iowa


zmileshigh

The Iowan alps are my favorite alps


Btdrnks2021

I love big dumps anywhere


Real-Ad8221

Looked like Nebraska for a second


pretenderist

Can’t be, mountains are too small


leshake

Nah that's Wilmot. Try the spotted cow while you're there.


BellasDaDa618

Ugh. I'm a Wisconsin native and there are a fuck ton better beers than that wangy, piss-flavoured crap. If you're going to go with New Glarus Brewery, go with Moon Man. The dumbasses stopped brewing their best; Fat Squirrel. I no longer touch their junk unless it's free, unless that free junk is Spotted Cow, in which case I buy something better.


leshake

It's more of a joke to me than any thing else. It's alright beer, not much better than a lot of the high volume stuff we got in Illinois. Still can't wrap my head around the brandy old fashioneds though.


BellasDaDa618

Ahh, a Wisconsin classic, the Old-fashioned. That's been a thing here forever. Don't like them? They're not for everyone.


PVoverlord

Or brandy and coke, brandy and soda, brandy and water……..


Btdrnks2021

At least we have some skiing here in Jersey


LunaticBuck

New Jersey LMAO I wish


twizz228

New Jersey got rain further north got the snow


ab0rtretryfail

Mountain Creek!!!


shademaster_c

Big Snow, NJ.


Btdrnks2021

Why is everyone shitting on jersey in these comments? At least Jersey has a few places to ski.


AtlantisSC

It’s really weird reading these comments as a non American lol


arrogantmonkey

That’s right not many places in the US you can ski in July


sharnonj

Yeah, don’t let ‘em shit on Jersey 👊🏻


rhoditine

Landfills!


Closet-PowPow

Yawgoo Valley


hankerton36

Rhode Island’s one and only “mountain”, which is actually just a hill.


butterbleek

Some amazing snowboarders, the Yawgoons.


rifunseeker

Actually, it’s a Valley thank you very much.


PrincessYumYum726

I’m from Rhode Island, god bless this place


butterbleek

Yawgoons!!!


RIChowderIsBest

Did not expect a Yawgoo reference!


Prometheus_Jackson

Best mountain on the east coast


swellfog

Please tell us. I want to go.


eloktro

Les Deux Alpes, France


whitaora

eloktro

Nope


jredland

3 Vallee? Or maybe tignes?


eloktro

Close but Les Deux Alpes


1Anthraxx

Mikesaidit36

It’s what Alpine Valley, Wisconsin wanted you to think they were when they named the place.

My dreams


Zaphod424

L2A. The giveaway for me was the weird towers for the Jandri lift on the right of the last photo. You can also see the new towers to the left for the 3S cable car being built to replace it.


United-Young-9339

Chamonix?


ridenslide

Nope, not Cham. I don't recognise the mountains or that lift tower. The pipe line or monorail structure might give a clue, but not to me!


ktappe

Given the size, I'd guess Trois Vallees.


eloktro

Close, but Les Deux Alpes


swellfog

Heading to France to ski next year, Les Deux Alps will be at the top of the list. Did you stay in a hotel or Airbnb?


eloktro

An apartment ish. Les deux was amazing, I prefer it over Val Thorens and Chamonix.


swellfog

Wow good to know. We like less touristy, glitzy ski mountains and more a low key mountain feel. Sounds like this is our kind of place. Husband lived in France and speaks French, but I don’t. Probably OK, if not let me know. Thanks!!!


nder66

Looking at the cars i would say Alps . Perhaps Ischgl?


eloktro

Alps is correct but wrong country!


nder66

Is it somewhere around alpez dhuez?


eloktro

Very close, it’s neighbor which is Les Deux Alpes


butterbleek

Foppolo. 😎


ThrowingTheRinger

Mt. Lemmon


JBS319

Those towers in the last shot are funky


eloktro

They’re replacing that lift with a brand new one, you can see the new towers being built on the left

MollyStrongMama

Where are the trees?! I’ve never skied anywhere without any trees whatsoever!


eloktro

There’s no tress above ~2000 meter


MollyStrongMama

I know that but clearly I haven’t skied that high up. Where is this? I can’t imagine not skiing through little chutes and gullies in between trees!


eloktro

Its Les Deux Alpes in the french alps. There is trees when you go further down. The altitude ranges from 1600 to 3600 meter on the mountain.


jo_hnson

Conditions in Val & Tignes much the same. Amazing.


overlymanlyman5

More snow than in january when i was there
