Flegere, Les Houches and La Tour are now closed here in Chamonix due to a lack of snow but the Brevent and Grand Montets ski areas are still open for skiers and snowboarders.The best snow is up at Les Grand Montets but it is not possible to ski down to the car park so the lifts can become quite congested.
