Diva Weeks: Everything You Need to Know About Attending a Ski Diva Ski Trip | The Ski Diva

Each season, The Ski Diva has two official trips that let us all spend some time skiing together. They’re not always a week long, but we call them “Diva Weeks” anyway. Meeting other Divas to ski in person is truly one of the best parts of this community, and we really encourage you to give...

Looking to be able to join Meet on the Hill .
I have sad news to report about Sunday River in Maine . They received massive destruction in today’s heavy rains .
The mountain is closed tomorrow to assess the damage . Roads have been washed out , The new Barker 6 chair that just opened this season looks like that sustained damage as well . A friend of mine is stranded at the mountain since her road got washed away .

Sorry to hear about Sunday River. It was a tough storm.

I just became a "Certified Ski Diva" I'm looking to join Meet on the Hill and learn more about Ski Diva East Week.

I'd LOVE a diva Europe option. Also, read a lot that skiing there and also accommodations are much more reasonable.

Same. I wonder how to go about finding a mountain that is awesome AND a good deal (considering accommodations and all).

There are probably posts on this somewhere. There was a Diva Europe in the works a few years ago, before Covid halted the ability to travel internationally when it was originally being planned for. Perhaps something that will be resurrected in the future.

If @RachelV is up for planning a Europe Diva trip, I'm in to help with planning!

I love the idea of a European Diva trip! Diva trips are absolutely going to keep happening, but I am hoping to turn them into less of a "forum owner picks the destination and week" situation. I'll start a thread about this at some point later in the season and I'm sure we'll chat about it on the Diva trips this year, but if you're interested in brainstorming about how to turn these trips into a bit more of a community-driven enterprise, now's the time to start thinking about it.

I vote Austria, somewhere that makes flying into Munich logical, so I can visit my parents on the same trip. Nope, not thinking selfishly at all ;)

Interesting, and definitely interested in thinking on this! I think some of the challenge when we tried to do like votes and stuff for destinations in the past is that lots of people like to have input when only a tiny fraction actually end up committing and going in the end. So then the masses would decide the destination for the small amount of people who actually go, which didn’t really seem fair. And it turned more organic of having the people on trips discuss and get ideas going, since a lot of the same people tend to actually go each year. Though certainly it would be great if we could also come up with ways for more new people to actually come attend the trips too!

I'm into Chamonix or Zermatt.. but I've never skied in Europe so I'm sure anywhere would be very cool.

Austria sounds awesome! I’m into the affordability aspect too.

I’ve been to both! I’ve skied in Europe 9 times over the last 20 years! I would love to be part of the conversation!

Have read that the Dolomites are more affordable than Austria or Switzerland. The scenery is awesome. Even impressed me during a family trip when I was a tween.

Would love to do Austria too. Have been to Europe several times and not skied Austria, skiing the Dolomites this year.

I would love to ski in Europe, but I should be honest that I probably won't go in the next few years-- I'm not sure my schedule will allow it.
