You should see what they are doing at Winter Park.  Within the next ten years it's really going to be an international mega-resort.  It's still owned by the City of Denver but Intrawest is injecting so many needed improvements and upgrades. They haven't worked on improving the nightlife in town.
I'm glad that you guys get to modify your lesson progressions.
I've known of a Cert 2 who went on vacation up in BC for a week or so.
Seems he didn't bring enough $$. He checked in with a school to see about making some $ for a few days. They said only since he was a Cert 2, they could probably work something out. Once restocked, he resumed his vacation. I wondered if he had to adjust his teaching slightly - sounds like he didn't need to.

We have so many people in our resort from so many places that they let us teach our methods, we get alot of aussies and kiwis up here so alot of the time you get a group which has been with a kiwi and your trying to figure out what they have done in the lesson! In fact I wish they would run clinics to familiarise us with the two progressions, I might suggest it next season I guess.
As for the village, if you got free stays there it would be super rad!
The village looks cool right, but check out the trail map now they have joined Les Arcs and La Plagne.
Les Arcs itself has 54 lifts, and runs from 800 to 3225 meters. Its epic if you get the snow.
This is a photo I took from the peak of Aguille Rouge, the 3225 meter limit. Lucky it goes that high because you can see the snow at christmas a couple of seasons back in the valley sucked! Proper ghetto cable car station!
So yeah, I love that place!
Oh and it's just round the corner from Tignes and Val val d'isere. Nice.
