Val d’Isere is the perfect location for early December skiing and with the early snowfalls we are currently experiencing along with the arctic temperatures it is even better than usual. This year this high altitude resort is also hosting the Alpine Skiing World Cup. Known in resort as the “Criterium de la Première Neige“, the Men’s competition can be enjoyed during the 10th-12th December and the Women will be taking to the piste the following weekend the 17th -19th December. Every year from now on, the resort has decided to take on a different theme corresponding to a competing nation. 2010 is the inaugural year and Britain is the first chosen nation. Proving that Britain really does have talented ski champions such as: Chemmy Alcott, Douglas Crawford and Alan Baxter who will be joining in the fun and games.
