I am a third-generation Californian and not much of a snow bunny. In fact, the last time I went skiing in the French Alps, I came home in an ambulance. Needless to say, friends and family were all a bit nervous when I announced that I’d be going back this winter. I’m happy to say that this trip was much more successful, a grand time was had by all and I’ve returned with notes and addresses of places to share with those of you brave enough to consider spending your February break skiing in the shadow of Mont Blanc....
