Poster: A snowHead
|
Going to the three valleys in the new year and wondered if anyone can recommend where the best off piste areas are?

Vallee des Avals up the back of Pyramides in 1650 is good. easy access and great terrain.
lots and lots of great lift served off piste over above La Tania and some great <1hr boot pack to the top of Rocher De la Loze.
Also, some of the stuff around the courchevel couloirs is great as well... all lift served. Great off piste steeps and bumps under the vizelle bubble as well - had lessons there with New Generation which were brilliant.
Never ventured much further than there due to a receding snow line and increasing avalanche risk.
More knowledgeable people will be along shortly.

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

Mont Vallon Meribel is a favourite of mine, although here as always you must! carry Arva shovel and probe.

Thanks for that. the guy who owns the chalet is a boarder and does guiding so hopefully he will have some good local knowledge.

adam gardner, if you are adventerous you could ski the vallee encombre (sp) from la masse and ends up just below st Martin and a short cab ride back.... proper off piste route and in a separate valley but great skiing in there and a nice easy long run ....
