That has to go down as the grimmest resort report I've ever read ....you really have my sympathies pal. I was there a year ago this week - I even considered buying an apartment.....maybe I was right not to rush in at the time?
Hopefully this year will be placed in the history books as a definite ONE-OFF....the place just has so much potential for it to be spoiled.

Thing is from the webcam it doesn't look that bad - not the best ever but it looks OK. Surely it can't be that icy by midday when it's 7 degrees though?

The webcam looks fine. This doesn't make sense. Any explanations?

people expecting too much and looking for somebody to blame as they cannot have fun?

The whole of Europe is having a snow drought - chill out and make the best of it!
