My daughter (9)and I (dont ask) are off to Les Gets w/c 7th Feb we are reasonable skiers - having done our first blacks the last holiday we had (2 yr ago) Im a bit unfit so not up for mega marathon skiing but would anyone out there care to join us for a run or two - Im determined to do the Yeti if its open but certainly not on the first day! My fav restraunt is Pte de Nyon -they do lovely hot chocs and vin chauds as long as it involves a stop off there!!!

Anyway Having been before to LG about 3 yrs ago Im looking fwd to going back there its such a lovely village and lovely scenery - Its my fav place. If anyone knows of any other good restraunts to go to as well happy for the reccs.

Mine too - head first on my back!! OH skied over the back of my skis near the top & that was the end of me :roll: I went back & did it again when he was nowhere to be seen. I've had some great holidays there - lots of happy memories :D

The plan is.... there's no plan!

Point de Nyon has changed hands recently. Food isn't as good, but you can't fault the location! So many great restaurants up the mountain there - you can't go wrong. Yeti black run hasn't been open yet this season - not sure why, must be avalanche risk.
Best restaurant in area is up Mont Chery, IMHO, Grand Ourse. Great views, two separate restaurants with different menus (one cheap, one posh) and lovely owners. So quiet up there - you can have Chery Nord to yourself for the afternoon. For a really tough black, try the Bouquetin off the side of Mont Chery. Makes the Yeti seem like a blue! Seriously, only do it if the snow is good, then pop back up the chair lift over the top of it and nip into the Grand Ourse as a reward. You'll deserve it. Going back out at Easter. Can't wait. Enjoy yourself and post a report. :D

For the best craic try Les Lhottys at the top of Nauchets Express. The boss is called Sandie and she is very friendly and great fun.
