Summary:
went here jan 12, no snow. if you are going to go here make sure it has snowed alot. skiid on the trails, lots of rocks. the trails are steep and slick and long.grand montats is scarey steep, didn't go off piste much i:e rocks. brevent was cool though, good trails decent food. I can only imagine what this place is like after big snowfalls, hire a guide and tell him to take it easy, black runs are like the sickest double diamonds you have ever seen, i never got past the reds. take out the insurance, its 2 dollars and will cover the cost of a rescue as in helicopters. these resorts are for good skiers, out their you are on your own, do not ski alone, if you get hurt you will need some one to get help, these areas ar huge. the town of chaminox is cool, lots of bars things to buy, Austria it aint, the party is pretty mellow, you'll be so tired it won't matter.

Summary:
I will think twice about returning. If you go plan to spend at least 5 days there so you can hope for good weather and less avalanche danger.
But be assured...when it is good, it is the best.

Summary:
Go there if you like challenging snowboarding/skiing/telemarking and fantastic night life. There are lots of seasoners there. If you prefer to ski right to the door of your Chalet/Hotel then don't go. There is a very good bus service.
Transfers to Chamonix are only 1-11/2 hrs fron Geneva.
