 Poster: A snowHead

@Poogle, thanks (unless you were being sarcastic  ). Sometimes there's not much to go on, but that photo had some generous clues.
My guess for the next photo is Pralognan la Vanoise, but I don't really think it is.

And the clues are (as I see them):
Skiing below the tree-line — assuming the photo is taken from a piste.
Mountains don't see massively high, as the tree-line creeps quite far up.
Photo is north-ish facing, as that is where the light is.
Valley ahead seems to be a dead-end.
If you zoom into the photo, you will see a large building with sloped roofs: a sports centre perhaps?
But apart from that, I don't have a clue!

@Poogle, I agree with your detective work.
Pralognan and Champagny both fit those criteria, however Champagny has south facing pistes (which should be visible in the photo, and I can't see any), and it looks a bit built up to be Pralognan. Vallorcine also seems a good guess!

It looks to me that there is a major road running through the valley - Montgenevre - looking at Mount Chaberton from the italian side?
