Great, does the jopb and then some

Being excited about the coming season and catching the best snow, this app is great. Webcams are good as are the piste maps i've tried all seem good res and viewable on my phone. Data looks up todate and accurate as well..
Nice work guys... only thing i'd add is a feature for snow dump alerts or something when major snowfall is due or just happened.... i know morzine has this in its website !
More than happy to pay for this great little app.

So far so good! At last a ski app with European info.
Really nice app, but poor maps!

I particullay like this app with simple layout and data, but is totally let down by the piste maps. after trying about 6 resorts I found only two were even readable, and the rest were just blurry jpg's. See Trois vallees.(three valleys) zermatt, Tignes, Matterhorn, Verbier. This is not obviously the software writers fault but if the source data is not good enough then it drags the app down with it.
As half the reason for these apps is the map data then this is a big let down!
Average

Annoyed I paid for this application. It has no resorts listed in Andorra, where I often visit. Austria seems well covered though. Trail maps are poor quality so not really useable.
Good

But perhaps that's just because the resort I'm going to is there and happens to have a fairly decent map. Found a bug though - the snow level at the peak went from 1.9m then later to 20cm (other websites show it's over two metres)
Missing resorts

Typically the places in Italy I am going to are not in this app. Features are great though for the ones I trialled. Would have gotton 5* if there was wider coverage.
very limited mountain selection 
By: tritonv10 - Feb 9, 2009
Version: 1.2
there are just not enough mountains listed in the USA for this app to be 2.99.
No use for Bansko!
By: Wes51 - 09-Mar-2009

Does not have info on any of the major european ski resorts in Bulgaria. Poor knowlege of world resorts!
Dissapointing

Piste maps are very low res and just completely unusable. Weather updates are too broad to be much use other apps are better (eg only one peak and valley snow depth for the whole of the 3 valleys in France).
Poor showing

Boasts of all the resorts it has, yet Les Deux Alpes (fairly large resort) has minimal info. Snow and lifts open, no cams and a blurry jpeg of a map that is too small, and unreadable when zoomed. Great idea, awful execution
