Paulaski,
So sorry about your hand, hope it's better soon.
I went to Montgenevre last year late March/early April, at 1860m its one of the highest resorts so good for late season snow. We arrived in a snowstorm and had good snow all week although it did get a little slushy on the south facing slopes in the afternoons - but it was warm and sunny. Its meant to be good for intermediate skiiers but a bit limited for advanced skiiers although you can get to the more extensive slopes of the Milky Way (Sestriere,Sauze d'Oulx and Sansicario) just down the road.
Hope you get your ski fix.

Head a few miles down the road to Serre Che. Its a lot better and bigger than Montg.

Hold your nerve, keep an eye on the cams, snow reports and forecasts and pick from there; late March is a wonderful time to go skiing, longer days and reasonably quiet in most places.
As for Serre Che, Tony, good choice BUT the ancient lift system is in desperate need of some investment. Too many old boneshaker chairs that are slow and frequently stop altogether.

I've never had a problem getting about the area. In fact, the worst old 3 man chair from Villeneuve mid station can now be avoided by the shiny new high speed chair which whisks you up to the top of Cucumelle, not that I've tried it this season yet.LOTA wrote:Hold your nerve, keep an eye on the cams, snow reports and forecasts and pick from there; late March is a wonderful time to go skiing, longer days and reasonably quiet in most places.

But it does have older lifts compared to the likes of Mayrhofen, Verbier, St Moritz et al
