Log in to snowHeads to make it MUCH better!
Registration's totally free, of course, and makes snowHeads easier to use and to understand, gives better searching, filtering etc. as well as access to 'members only' forums, discounts and deals that U don't even know exist as a 'guest' user. (btw. 50,000+ snowHeads already know all this, making snowHeads the biggest, most active community of snow-heads in the UK, so you'll be in good company)..... When you register, you get our free weekly(-ish) snow report by email. It's rather good and not made up by tourist offices (or people that love the tourist office and want to marry it either)... We don't share your email address with anyone and we never send out any of those cheesy 'message from our partners' emails either. Anyway, snowHeads really is MUCH better when you're logged in - not least because you get to post your own messages complaining about things that annoy you like perhaps this banner which, incidentally, disappears when you log in :-)

Currently in the 3 valleys and enjoyed early morning run down the combe du saulire today. I would like to have a go on the Combe du vallon tomorrow morning if it is clear weather again but not sure how it compares in difficulty to the saulire? The vallon run is pretty long without any alternatives once you are on it and no real way to see it before you are on the lift up.
Any advice would be appreciated! Thanks

Similar in steepness but the Vallon may have some bumps on it in places and at the bottom tends to get icy / worn. In fresh snow a great run...
Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

@PaddyM
, I'd say on average the Vallon is slightly more challenging. If you enjoy the Saulire, then a very good chance you'll enjoy the Vallon.
Have you been on La Masse this week? That's very good too.

Both great runs. Similar difficulty but Vallon is more varied and has a more wild /remote atmosphere. One of the very best IMO
