The End of an Era...We are Shutting Down the Messageboard

The messageboard is now in read-only mode and no new posts or topics can be created. We will leave the messageboard up for historical purposes, but you will not be able to make new posts or comment on existing ones.

We have started a Discord server and hope that you all will join us on there. Technology has changed over the years and maintaining the messageboard has become somewhat of a pain in the butt and Discord offers many features for users, the main one being a very polished mobile app.

We really hope you all will join us on Discord and think you will like the platform. Use the invite link below to join.

Awesome TR! I was thinking about a repeat trip to Whistler next year, but these TR's of Chamonix and now Verbier makes me think a trip to Europe is in my families future!



Duff beer... I thought that only existed on the Simpsons... :)

Direct flight from Charlotte to Geneva, then it's just a short train ride to most resorts. Super easy, but be sure to buy a half fare card through the swiss transportation department.

+!!!! Nice. Love the alps, you aren't going to find many roped off areas... better get a guide or follow some tracks/people or you can get into some real trouble.

That's the truth, I had to hike out of a Ravine to get back to the gondola. Not fun at that elevation.
