Visitor Reviews of Dizin

My country is listed as US, but I'm from New Zealand :)
Anyhow, I've just had four days at Dizin and it was absolutely great. I happened to be there over No Ruz, the Iranian New Year, so the rates were at the weekend rates (95,000IR rather than IR80,000) which is still peanuts compared to most international rates.
The conditions were great. Incredible off-piste riding with soft powder all over.
On-piste riding was not as good, due to very infrequent and limited grooming. The pistes rapidly formed rather unpleasant mini moguls, which were annoying to ride on when clouds interrupted visibility.
There are no learner slopes at all, so the pistes tend to be crowded with learners even on moderately advanced slopes, so you have to keep an eye out.
Excellent size field, with plenty of variety in terrain.
All over, the best field I've skied on to date :)
