Champoluc, Alagna et al

So, anyone been here? We've got a trip booked to Champoluc in early January - our first time on the slopes of Monte Rosa (I think).

Any recommendations for interesting runs? Going with a mixed group (kiddies, beginners and experienced) - the write-ups I can find imply there's a variety of runs, but no substitute for someone who's actually been there.

Thanks in advance,

Anyone know Champoluc or Alagna???

Noticed that Champoluc was completely closed due to high wind yesterday (!) Is that a regular occurrence???

Weather.com are forecasting snow for the Aosta valley, from Friday through to next Thursday! Heh heh, and several j2skiers arrive there on Friday... anyone else going to be around?
