Advantages: Variety of runs, Views, Ski School Disadvantages: getting to the slopes, runs to resort
...Once the steep walk up to the bottom lift station has been negotiated the lifts spread out to give great access to the varied terain of CransMontana.
The views from the top are some of the best in Europe from the Monte Rosa, Matterhorn down to Mont Blanc.
Wide open pistes for beginers to wonderful powder on the long decent down from the glacier.The piste maintenance is very good and with the glacier snow is gaurnteed. Lots of eating establishments and for Switzerland reasonable prices.

The two villages offer a variety of facilities for non skiers making it an ideal resort for mixed parties....

I came across Nora Roberts books purely by accident after getting one free in a goodie bag a couple of years ago. Since then, I've read and collected quite a few and Montana Sky is the latest one I've read.
Although I really like Nora Roberts as an more
I remember well watching this in my early teens, and a lot of the time getting all weepy with a friend of mine after school. I can remember watching this on TV on a Thursday after school was over.
I'm sure most of you have watched or heard of this... more
