Baby Boomers Club – Meribel
Rob Smart
Editor & Ex Seasonaire
As an old hippy skier I often used to find it hard to find ski mates. Most of my old mates had become instructors.
The only qualifications needed to join is that you must be oldish, a skier, active, and positive thinking. No miserable old gits allowed. The skiing level should be about intermediate or so but relaxed. You won’t be taking part in any downhill races.
I shall help arrange older groups to meet up together at Chaudanne at 9am so they can all ski off together.
Then you can at least all have some good intelligent conversations on the lifts in good company !
Just drop me an e mail and I shall get you all in contact with each other.
If and when I am out there on ski trip then I shall of course join you.
- The club is a solution to those travelling alone or with family. A chance to chat and ski and lunch with likeminded mates. Males or Females welcome.
I skied throughout the 80/90’s and more in Meribel, so would love to impart some of my acquired knowledge to other older Brits arriving on holiday. The young can look after themselves!
You can ski together, lunch together, and have a drink at end of the day. As and when you wish. I can offer advice on the best routes for you to take daily. However as I have written a 6 day ski guide for Meribel expect that to be the rough route for the day.
The bonus is that I will advise you all the best routes and the best lunch restaurants in the 3 valleys. So if you are new to Meribel it could vastly improve your holiday.
