there are no busses, you have to make your own way there (unless i've missed something over the last 5 years) you could use the local transfer company which is. www.alpine-transfer-company.com he does day trips
and you get 1 day, not one day in each resort

lots of snow this morning.
I've just spoken to my mate who has a horse where my pony is (le lauzet) they've had over 50cm up there, i cant actually get to the horses right now as its thigh high up the path but i'm going up there to bring her in this afternoon.
It is still snowing and more on the cards for tonight.
Did a little road snowboarding last night!
will get some pics for you later. this is all shaping up rather nicely

moffatross, we didn't pay much for that Easter trip either, £199 per adult, one child place for £69 and the second child for £99. We even got our apartment upgraded to a two bedroom duplex! (Les Alpages in Villeneuve). If they are running trips for all of their guests in resort, you can be assured you will be offered a ticket, that's how they make their money. They will only organise a coach trip of they have enough interest anyway.

Helen Beaumont, monty opens this week end so we will still get some turns in.
i think it just costs too much to extend contracts etc etc, still the 13th will be an awesome day.
i'm having to read all the english translations on ski maps etc cos they're terrible!
question for you. control of lift pass, includes random and....... roving (what they put) but i think it should say roaming, or am i just being pedantic?

Arno, its not rubbish, it was always supposed to open on the 13th. we'll all go to monty!

You know it makes sense.
|
|
snowangel., random? Is that the translation of randonée? Perhaps it should say walking and hiking?

no its for the security controlls, basically meaning that they can get checked at lifts and while generally skiing.

Arriving in Monetier at approx 16.30.
We need to go and collect the tickets for ski school, organise ski hire and buy lift passes. A lot to do before everything shuts and to do on the first morning.
Can you please advice which is the best ski hire shop in Monetier.
Do you know what time the ski hire shops close and what time the ski pass office shuts?

A quickie for you Serre Che locals....My local lift pass includes a day at Montgenevre. How good is it there and how far away? Many thanks

Montgenevre is well worth a day away. I drove from Montgenevre to Briancon last time out there and it took about 25 mins. That was in March this year. Depends on the weather though as i could imagine the road would be pretty tricky in poor weather - it's switchbacks galore as you climb up to Montgenevre.
Some very very good skiing at Montgenevre though.

Christopher, where are you staying? Ski Quartz behind the Alpen Bar is fine, but there is now one in the new buildings at the bottom of the ski lifts which might be more convenient.
Lift pass office and esf office is at the foot of the slopes too.
