| New Season Upon Us - 08/09/06
|
 |
Its been a while since I last updated the website and its time again for me to say. This is what I am hopefully going to get done this season. Right then. Well I would really like to introduce some level of interactivity to the site. I will probably be adding a forum to replace Readers Comments, specifically people that are heading out to morzine be it for the season or for the week. You'll be able to ask any questions you like and hopefully get some decent replies. I will also be updating the Webcams as there have been a lot of changes there. I may also add a review section allowing you to put up your reviews of restaurants, hotels, apartments, companies in the Morzine/Portes Du Soleil area. The main aim of this website is to inform those people heading out to Morzine so they can have the best time possible. Morzine to me is a magical place and I hope that together we can build this site into a community showcasing what Morzine has to offer.

| Chatels Updated Park - 10/01/06
|
 |
Chatel have been putting a fair bit of effort into getting a decent park setup this year. They have purchased a brand spanking new Snow Turbo pipe basher to make a 120m pipe.
They've also got some new rails, the updated setup looks like this;
Slopestyle (800m)
Kickers: 4 Green, 3 Red (including step up), 2 Black
Rails: 1 Flat 4m, 1 Flat 6m, 1 up/flat/down, 1 kink, 2 C's, 1 S.
Its definitely worth a look.
The Pipe is accessible from the
Les Coquelets ski lift and the Slopestyle via
Les Bossons.
If you get any photos then let me know!

| Direct To Lift - 10/01/06 |
 |
Avoriaz (and I presume the rest of the Portes Du Soleil) have introduced a new way of paying for your days skiing called Direct To Lift.
After paying 19 euros to sign up to the scheme you are able to go directly to the lifts and use your pass without having to wait in the queue for your lift pass at the beginning of the day. You simply pay a direct debit each month depending on how many days skiing you've managed to fit in.
While I realise this is aimed more towards the local French and Swiss Im sure it would also come in handy for those lucky few that are able to get out for a weekend every now and again thoughout the season.
Have a look here for more information.
