Has anything significant changed from last year? It's such a big area that I cant see anything but I'm not really looking at the peripheral areas, just the main bits.

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

Flet©h, the piste that the Milka Cow skis on. Honestly, I'm not kidding... the cuddly purple cow will be there at weekends (& presumably school hols as well) to give out chocolate to the kids, & there will be various information boards along the side of the piste giving details of local wildlife. Rather sweet, actually... even if the sight of a purple cow on skis is a bit of a flashback moment

Michael B, Has anything changed? No not really some of the Blacks are now Piste Natur, ie unpisted, but as blacks the majority of the piste was never pisted anyway!
other than that err, no! Lots of piste widening and contouring during the summer and the New Verdons lift , but none of that is on the map!

I concur about the Milka cow...and it's not just kids who get choccies. I did a season their, and got my suger rush almost daily.

And love to help out and answer questions and of course, read each other's snow reports.

So a small private website can post a copy of the new piste map before the resort opens, even though they have to arrange a high resolution scan of a folded copy of the paper map.
However the official resort website only has a link to the flashy cr@p that is the paradiski site with its "interactive" map which is 2 years out of date with pistes missing and no names of pistes.
The resort must have a PDF of the map which they sent to the printers months ago, would it really be too much trouble to upload a copy as per the 3 valleys and Espace Killy?

But that's because they believe in flashturbation rather than just a simple Hi-Res jpg which would be much more easily downloaded to a mobile device/tablet etc..
Simples is often the way forward, sadly not appreciated by the marketing depts of french resorts..
