Just came back, skied there 2 days and we did almost the full domain Valloire included, so limited for a whole week. Many slopes are sun-oriented, so nice to ski as long as there is enough snow. On the steep parts it was already limited (some black/red slopes were not open, mainly in Valloire and this begin of March) In Valmeinier Villages, limited accommodation, whereas Valmeinier 1800 has enough but the esplanade is a ski-bottleneck. The two have no regular bus connections, so best to park in 1800 for the evening. Secured non-groomed piste is limited, only black Coterieux slope. Nice views.
