Review of Chamonix, France
"A Mecca for Freeride"
reviewed by powderhound *
Amazing landscape and brilliant freeride options. Individual ski areas accessed by ski bus can be frustrating but the skiing makes up for it.
Dead easy from Geneva, by bus, car or train.
Lively but not over-the-top, lovely town.
* Freerider, with friends, who skis, single visit
