This is Les deux Alpes in the French Alps. The resort itself is a perfectly nice place. Not too posh, not too dirty…just right. The village is at an altitude of 1650m and its highest point is 3600m. Whilst it is not as good as the three Alps due to its smaller size its still pretty good. I found that it got a bit boring towards the end of a week as you can do all the runs.
Where this resort comes in to its own is at the snow park. Its one of Europe’s best snow parks and it is rad to the power of sick. There is a half pipe, several grinds and boxes, various size kickers and some of the biggest big airs going. We spent our time at this park and never got board (PUN PUN). Sadly most of the images of me and my friends busting tricks are on digital so i cant put them up. I assure you they were really rad, so rad a girl got pregnant just from watching.
For après ski its pretty standard, there are a few nice places such as the Rummery (sells bottles of rum, get the toffee one its tasty) and the Yeti. Also there are some very good restaurants there. My favourite was L’Table it sold some of the tastiest lamb this side of the Mississippi. Be warned though, it is truly expensive. A normal coffee can cost as much as £4.50 and beer was about £6 pounds a pint. Even worse they don’t fill the glass properly so you feel cheated by a further 30p. I remember a bought two sandwiches and a coke in a bog standard take away and it was £17!!!!!!! They must have seen me coming.
