Snow dances and teepeesSwapping their traditional rain dance for a snow dance, the Indians have arrived at the Spanish resort of Formigal!
The Poblado Indio or Indian village is the latest addition to the already varied range of bars, cafes and restaurants on offer on the slopes at Formigal.
The teepees are traditional Tomahoe tents with the largest reaching a height of 15m.
Inside, the teepees have been decorated in true Indian style and can hold up to 40 people for lunch. Outside there are long wooden tables and benches, a large drum and a splendid totem pole.
The specialities include winter warmers such as milk with rum, meats, broth and chips.
The snow in Formigal has been falling all week and there are fantastic depths of up to 130cm and a plentiful serving of pow.
The predictions are for yet more snow to fall and at heights as low as 400m.
Bookings made before the 15 January receive free ski or board hire and for the rest of the season (except half term) and there are 2-for-1 liftpasses and free liftpasses for children.
More information about these great deals is available through Crystal, Neilson, Thomson, First Choice, Igluski.com, Ifyouski.com, Ski Tracer, Zenith Holidays and J2Ski.com.
