Fedor’s guidebook for Argentière and Chamonix
Skiing areas
Being high and north oriented this area has the guaranteed snow for the longest time in the Chamonix valley. Immense freeriding potential! In winter it gets sun only at mid day -- do not forget warm clothing. No need to use any transport -- it is close even for skiers walking in ski boots.
