We'll be in Chamonix for at least three weeks over Christmas and New Year - maybe more if we can get away earlier! It will be the longest trip since our five week Colorado exttravaganza in 2003/4 -I can't wait! There's already 40cm of snow on the nearest slopes

That sounds like a great trip Shellski! The snow is coming on nicely too
A shame that we won't be out there in Feb - still who knows how the weekends will fall! Where will you be staying?

Update to my earlier post
Update to my earlier post: My trip to Crested Butte and Monarch (which includes both resort and snowcat skiing) now also includes: 1 day at Silverton (guided skiing), 1 day snowcat skiing at Durango and 1 day at Telluride that includes hiking for some turns in an area that they plan to develop. All in all, 8 days on snow. Originally, we didn't think my husband would be going on this trip, but now he is, so we are very excited! :D
We are trying to get ready for all that high-altitude hiking now!

Other than normal weekend trips to Copper and day trips to other nearby areas, we have time in Vail (10-14 Feb) and Keystone (28 Feb-4 Mar).
We have visited Jackson Hole (twice), Whistler, and Zermatt in the past 2 years, so we need to stay home for a season. But JH is such a quick plane ride from here; I'm not ruling out a spur-of-the-moment trip. (My husband doesn't know that, though. I don't think he approves. )
Are any of you traveling to ESA Aspen?

We've got a trip to Brighton & Solitude planned for Jan 11th-15th. I *cannot wait*, especially after the early season we've had. The only downside is that we've done so little skiing so far (only 5 days) that I'm going to be in terrible shape. Hopefully 5 consecutive full days of skiing in Utah powder won't kill me. ;)
We're also hoping to get in a trip to Tahoe late March, depending on the weather and prices. And we're throwing around the idea of heading up to NH over Presidents' day, since we can drive up and use our existing season pass at Attitash, so it'd be pretty cheap overall. I doubt all of those will end up happening, but hopefully we can make it 2 out of 3.
