I'm there 5 weeks later, the same as Charlie26.
Maybe you and CWagner could let us both know what the best bits of the resort are.
My kids are hoping that the play park has enough jumps and canyons to keep them busy.
You could always pay a beer on for us both!! :D
Cheers
I have skied the Grand Massif before, I do recommend the place :thumbup:
Me too...
I can't remember the snow parks at Samoens, Morillon or Les Carroz, but there's big one at Flaine.
It's quite way out tho and it's only got a very long drag lift to the top of it - bit of a pain on a board. There was a party going on when we went there last year, loud music, BBQ and the occasional teen getting some big air. Now I know why it's tucked away!
Try and go on the Fred (red run) if you can at Flaine - the chair lift is amazingly high and it's a nice run. Can be closed often though due to wind blowing the snow off.
The Marvel at Morillon is nice tho gets a bit monotonous in places if the snows patchy. It's got wildlife pictures and facts along the way.
Les Carroz skiing is lovely as there are quite a few tree lined runs and make sure you dress up really warm if you're going on the Lanche chairlift which is at Morillon- it's really exposed.
Have a great time :mrgreen:
