what do you want, good parks or backcountry?
I would say Trois vallèes or Valdisere or something like that.
or take the car over to switzerland somewhere depending on how long your staying.
Check where its most snow.

flying to geneva. think either val d'Isere or les contamines. would quite like some nice back country - but not really expecting the snow to be great so a good park would be good. quite interested to know what the snows actually like in these places - its impossible to really tell from resort descriptions.

Val actually has a decent park for europe. And it has a SICK SICK SICK back country.
I skied it for 6 months. Orgasam territory!

yeah, the snow is slushy, almost everywhere.
Valdisere has a pretty nice park, val thorens have like 3 nice parks.
If your flying to geneve i think you should go to laax flims, or zermatt or something like that.
