Big lines in Chamonix being skied e.g Les Courtes

VB's being skied

You will never enjoy Chamonix for the on piste restaurants or near piste off piste (sorry Swedes beat you to it). My tips say bonjour when you enter a shop, buy some touring skis, enjoy a 2 euro picnic baguette in the sun and keep you beer above the 1/2 way mark.

If you are still there on April 27th am buying you dinner with plenty of wine.
