This season I only had chance to get 3 days of skiing in Switzerland with some friends, so it's about time for the first real ski trip. I will go and discover the Yabuli and Wanlong Ski Resorts in China this month. Anyone want to join? Feel free to leave a comment or contact me on facebook for details.

With a few friends from Shanghai we will meet in Harbin on 16. February evening and take the early ski train to Yabuli at 7.48am. We will plow the slopes from 17. to 22. February and stay in the lush Clubmed Resort in Yabuli. They have good discounts for 3 nights and more, you can book it on www.clubmed.com.hk but be aware that the ski equipment is not included. You can rent it up there for an extra 380 RMB a day.
After Yabuli I check out the resort of Wanlong near Beijing from 23. to 25. February. That is around 4 hours drive northwest from Beijing. I found a good link to share about the most famous ski resorts in China: www.chinaskitours.com although it looks a bit idle. You always gotta see it for yourself...
That won't be the only trip this season, I'll try to make the best out of it. In early March we go to Norway for ski mountaineering. Even if not exactly Asia, I still gonna share that trip here, it's sure going to be special.
By end of March I will look at the special end-of-season offers in Japan. Usually there are very good bargains, the slopes are less crowded, restaurants have seats again without need of reservation and the snow is still awesome. Anyone want to join me there?
Cheers
Gottfried
