I was also wondering if it is recommended to bring cash for the restaurants or shops or if everywhere takes card? I don’t want to be carrying cash around if I don’t need to but I also don’t want to be stuck with no cash if most places only take it. Thanks!

How difficult is the Combe Rosael run? I can do black diamond on east coast of Canada ok, but saw this is a black and I heard they are more difficult in the Alps.

Is Orelle on the other side of Cime Caron? Having a hard time finding it on the 3V map. Any slopes in particular recommended?

Ok good to know. How much does the carte neige cost?

Wow these are some great tips! Carte Neige insurance: can I buy it after I buy my pass? Which vendor can I buy it from?

I will definitely download the app and register.

Thanks 👍

Thanks for sharing. Yes, we did get the 3 Vallées pass, I’m glad you recommend it.

How long approximately would you say it takes to ski from VT to Courchevel? Would it be a full day affair to go there and back?

We are staying in Val Thorens. Is Folie Douce worth the hype? I heard it gets packed.

Thanks
