I'd disagree with this. I found that the slopes in Val d'Isere getting back to the resort were anything but easy when I was there this time last year. It didn't help that people were crowding onto the only blue run that was open back down into the valley, and it was far from easy. > fab nightlife.

There is *fantastic* skiing round there. I went to Mottaret just before Christmas, and the snow at the top of Courchevel was very good. -- Lusercop.net - LARTing Lusers everywhere since 2002
