    Hello me and y friends are planning on going snowboarding after chrsitmas. We were thinking of getting a cheap package as we did that about 3 years ago in Andorra and it worked out well.

    My friend was supposed to organise it by the end of October before the prices started to jack up but everytime I asked him about it he would say he will sort it.

    Safe to say he hasnt and I really just want to book it before its too late and we miss the season and its too dear.

    We were thinking of just heading to Andorra again but just heard from someone it is dodgy for snow this year as it is not high enough altitude.

    Anyone have any opinion on this or recomend a place to go for cheap with a fair chance of snow?

    Cheers

    Hmm, I don't know anyone that has been to Andorra this year but I haven't heard any complaints about the snow. It was a big issue last year (but Andorra wasn't alone) but I've heard from anyone that's gone away this season that conditions are fairly good so far.

    Here are some webcams of the resorts in Andorra:

    But again I don't know anyone that's been to Andorra yet this year, so maybe some other boards folk have been and have a better idea.

    Failing that, Livigno is a good option. Tax free like Andorra. Plus, about 85% of this board are going this season ;)

    w00t! I'm part of that 85%!

    Livigno is supposedly better than Andorra, haven't been to Andorra but from what I hear...
