We are almost sold out ! please let us know ASAP if you want in !!
Under the highest peak of Western Europe: Mont Blanc
February 2 to 10, 2007

Come ski and snowboard with Dynamic Outdoors and Diamond Dogs in Chamonix.

The world’s best expert skiing and one of the world’s most picturesque settings, in the shadow of 15,767-foot Mont Blanc, creates an experience that is hard to beat.

We’ll spend 7 days and nights in this incredible location. Experience the challenge and the exhilaration of testing yourself against Europe’s most spectacular slopes.

There are 5 very different ski areas in the valley surrounding Chamonix. You’ll find wide open bowls, tracks through the forests, natural pipes, great gullies, and everything in between. While beginners will be kept quite busy on available easier terrain, it is the intermediate and expert skiers and snowboarders who will find endless slopes to suit whatever mood that strikes.

And as if the 5 ski areas aren’t enough to keep you busy during your trip to Chamonix, there are additional activities available like Off-piste guided skiing, and Ice Climbing on Europe’s largest ice fall!

When the day is done, it’s time to rest for a bit in the hammam (Turkish steam bath) and sauna, enjoy a hearty meal, and then off to explore the pedestrian center ville for apres-ski and mingling with the locals.
