Arlberg-St. Anton Alpine/Downhill Resorts Resort (Are you this resort?)

The Tyrolean village of St. Anton am Arlberg offers unlimited sporting and relaxation activities against a backdrop of prominent peaks.
Those arriving in winter enter a superlative snowy paradise which was internationally renowned long before the Alpine Ski World Championships were held there in 2001. 86 mountain railways and lifts grant skiers and snowboarders access to over 270 km of groomed slopes and over 180 km of deep powder runs. Tourists are free to ski from morning till night on a variety of different slopes without having to use the same lift system once – virtually unique in a European ski resort.

I was only there for a day trip but intend to return sometime for a few days. Massive lift and terrain complex, ski anywhere policy, really cheap skiing 44 eur, ~ $60 day ticket, eating and drinking, and fantastic scenery. Awesome and epic are way overused terms but they apply here if anywhere. Early season conditions but good grooming.
