Portes du Soleil
Europe - Switzerland, Europe - France
Powdorf's take
Portes du Soleil presents a grand spread, some 16,000 acres for the diligent explorer. Its nature leans towards the expansive journey, rewarding those who delight in covering ground and discovering new vistas. A generous snowfall of 315 inches ensures most corners are well-powdered for your traversal.
Consider a multi-day ramble through this region. From here, Torgon lies but a mere 49 miles hence, offering a different Swiss perspective. Or, if the spirit moves you further into France, La Chapelle D'Abondance awaits, albeit a slightly longer drive at 48 miles. The drives themselves tend to be scenic, through valleys and alongside peaks.
For those holding the Indy Pass, Portes du Soleil welcomes you within its substantial boundaries. Be mindful, however, that while the territory is vast, navigating between its many parts requires some understanding of local transit, or a willingness to drive between various lift bases.

Lo, the machinations of the robotic alchemists sometimes produce wonders, yet just as often yield fool's gold. Thou art on thine own shouldst thou take its utterances as wizard's writ.
