First time I skied in France was during my spring break last year, in Chamonix-Mont-Blanc. Conditions felt like spring skiing.
You're somewhat mistaken on the idea of "in-bound" terrain in europe: most ski resorts are public land as opposed to private or leased land in the US, and they can't really stop you from going anywhere so there are no boundaries at all.
One thing I find interesting is that only groomed runs or pistes are marked on maps in europe, while in north america tree runs and bowls tend also to be marked and have difficulty ratings even though in europe much of it would be “off piste”
I will be going to the very best in Switzerland for the 4th time next winter...For a month. I wish I could live there. BTW if you wanna compare just take a look at the trail maps. In 3 Vallees it takes a season just to ride each chair lift. And the Dolomites in Italy? You cannot do it all in a lifetime and it is all interconnected.
The freedom of skiing in France is a big bonus too. The idea that you are responsible for your own safety - no little hitler ski patrol threatening to take your pass for no reason and almost no roped off areas where you are not allowed to venture.
Great video...but im not a vacation skier...im a skier. the skiing and snow quality is all that matters
Great video, everyone please ski in Europe. GO TO EUROPE 😉
How about the quality of the skier in France,great vs USA, not so much. Lack of ski patrol, yellow jackers in Europe. Most important,more skiers than snowboards 90, 10
