this is my favorite line i've ever skied. its about a 45 min hike, which most people aren't usually up for. fuck its worth it for thousands of vert feet of fresh!!
not seasoning it this year. had 3 weeks in val in december/ new year and got another fortnight in 2 weeks time. sounds to me like you need to work on your commitment mon ami! my suggestion would be to get an early nite if its dumping and you may be in luck... or alternatively listen to radio val's snow forecast!
skied it this time last season in a foot of fresh- about 30secs charged top to santons piste. knackered i was!
