Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

Too much to list. If the snow's good (and I suspect it is) the possibilities are endless. Vast ski area. You must do Mont Fort and get yourself across to Nendaz. Lots of restaurants and bars for apres and beyond - party town

Blindside, you may want to use the search function in the user facilities drop down. There's loads on here. You're very lucky the snow conditions will be the best this season. The avalanche risk will be mighty high too.....

Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

Yep, really looking forward to it. I have been lucky with snow this year: St Gervais for a week from Boxing Day and it snowed the whole time we were there. Also La Plagne in the middle of Jan, great conditions again.
Is there anything in and around Verbier I should make sure I do?
Thanks.

If the snow is as good as we hear and you like off-piste, get your self a guide.... but wait until the pack settles first...

With more snow forecast you might find that sleeping in, mornings means that more is open later - not really a good early riser place, if it is dumping snow and the forecast said from Wednesday it might be, then things from the top down get closed until they have cleared them out a bit.
Parlour where are you - what are the conditions like ?

not only is sleeping in when you have a valid lift pass a mortal sin, but there's always Bruson and Savolyeres if not much is open in Verbier. When the vis closes in head for the trees!

Blindside, I will be in Nendaz next week. If you have time, trek over to Veysonnaz and have a bash at the World Cup Super-G course the Piste de l'Ours better known as the BEAR RUN - a solid red with little black bits. If my memory serves me well from Verbier to Veysonnaz is 5 lifts, but on the return it is circa 8 lifts back see the ski circus
Have fun!!
