A little mad perhaps - But due to childcare issues I happen to have free week from 31st May... SO... looking to get to Tignes ( or where ever ) for some skiing..
ATM ;- Open, new snow, 75 lifts working - have been before in summer - was ok for a day or so - skiing before 11,12...
Road trip? ( drive( to airport )park,transfer, book in etc , fly , airport, bus transfer - last time took...~ 11 hours - so "only" 12-14 if you drive... ) ?
any thoughts?

The Glacier at Tignes is only open 27 Jun to 9 Aug. the state of the glacier means that the days of 365 skiing have long gone.

Where is Tinges ? If you mean Tignes then it is shut that week, as is everywhere else in France.
Look at Austria.

Hintertux is by far the best area for summer skiing!! Heading there in July - the park is still open and fully functioning even that late into the summer. Amazing

Yep Hintertux has it! Great conditions for this time of year lots of fresh snow, partial sunshine not a lot of après ski fun though as so few people here but a few beers in the sun after a full day was great.
