The reason for suggesting Val Thorens / Chourchevel is that it's at a
much higher altitude than Avoriaz, ie. village is at 2400m and the top
ski points go up to just above 3200m. It's a bit further from Geneva,
but there are shuttles down there from the airport as well, so getting
there should be easy.

We can try to look at the types of accommodation there, if it's
possible, it could be kinda cool to rent a big chalet. Not sure if it's
feasible though.

If it's in the US, I am a definite no-go, if it's in France, I am
likely, in the Germany speaking region 50/50. If it's in France I am
happy to help organize, which I am able to go or not.

Cheers,
