Hi, I'm currently deciding where to go with my son. This will be an organized trip, with ski school for kids. Both early February. My primary concern is the snow, i.e. where the snow conditions are more sure, as I must commit now. It seems French resort is higher so im thinking this is a safer option. I know this place, I was there 10 years ago and I liked it. I do not know Dachstein West - but it is much closer. I am advanced on piste skier, he is beginner starting to carve turns who was skiing with me in Nassfeld this year, and wasnt scared of difficult reds too much. Though obviously he felt best on the easier red tracks. Anyway, im leaning towards France but this is a long way for us. I will appreciate some recommendations. Thanks!
