Hi, my suggestion would be to hire a car, and drive to Villars, bout hour and a half. Zermatt last year and found the drive surprisingly easy and a great experience.

Villars also reporting good skiing conditions.

Hope this helps.

PS Transfers shouldnt be too much either.

Marc

If I had a short trip available this coming few days, I'd be heading to Chamonix and trying to get myself up to the Vallee Blanche.

Why the V.B now Tony?

Considering that conditions on the snow bridges are very thin, it's probably one of the most dangerous seasons' up there for many years, I'd love to know your rationale.

Youre better informed than me bandit, I was suggesting it due to snow reports coming out of cham which suggeat v good conditions. In which case the posted in the area should be good.

Chamonix or Les Contamines might be your best bet as they are high up.

Do you mean its too hard for you, or are conditions too dodgy right now?
