Mt Cheget for Russians is like La Grave but colored Russian. No groomed pistes - only off-piste skiing. Very difficult for the beginners. Season from early December till end of May (especially good end-March till mid April). Low prices for everything. One cable car built in 60-s and never been repaired since. Sometimes problems with locals... But skiing there is amazing and lots of people choose MtCheget!
