Otherwise that's a big risk you took over-booking by 5 apartments (26 beds) for friends. :shock:

Strange how the Three Valleys looks very different when orientated that way around. The piste maps are the other way i.e. Val T to the Right, Courcheval to the Left.

and I'm surprised how few blues show up in the Courcheval valley.

Rear wheel drive and snow is one of the best combo's for an andrenaline rush, if you want to play -)

Sometimes it can be as good as blasting down an icy red or black run not knowing where the patches of ice are :)

Big rush :)

Love RWD in the snow :)



'Smartcar' driver here (which are rear wheel drive), and virtually any amount of acceleration and it pirouettes: or virtually any amount of brake and it pirouettes. :shock:

It tends to always end up facing forward again so I get to my destination, just a little bit dizzy though.

Playful yes, adrenaline rush? not really :(
Snow .........
