I was speaking with my UK friends, primarily about Wimbledon - my MBA-friend got corporate tickets to the event (semi-finals, very jealous), but things turned to skiing.
They are thinking of two places for a 4-day Long Weekend late January/early February 2026:
Anyways, I am open to both of the above choices. Again, the combo of Engelberg/Andermatt is one of the top 5 Alps expert/off-piste areas (snow, terrain, ease). And it's been many years since La Grave (although late January is a bit too early for everything to be filled in). After this year, I've taken a liking to Les 2 Alpes and La Grave - it's always good.
For Americans/Canadians, Engelbreg/Andermatt are most similar to BC resorts like Kicking Horse or Revelstoke - not huge, special, massive vertical, and generally significant snow.

- Les Deux Alpes/La Grave, France
- Engelberg (again)
