Actually, Joseph and Claire are skiing because The Grandma doesn't like skiing. She doesn't like snow and cold. So, she has decided to stay in the restaurant area doing this post, reading for a while, watching the WSL matches and resting, while her two friends enjoy another of their favourite sports.
La Rosière-Espace San Bernardo is a winter sports resort in the Tarentaise Valley, located in the commune of Montvalezan, in the department of Savoie in the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region. At 1,850 m, it is built on a balcony site, facing south and offering a panorama of the valley. The ski area is linked to the large Franco-Italian area of Espace San Bernardo.
La Rosière-Espace San Bernardo is located in the Tarentaise Valley at the foot of the Petit-Saint-Bernard Pass, in the department of Savoie. Its altitude varies from 1,850 m to 2,800 m, with the resort-village itself situated at 1,850 m, and its highest point being Mont Valaisan, at 2,891 m. Its southern exposure and proximity to the Petit Saint Bernard Pass provide it with exceptional sunshine and snow conditions, allowing skiing in the spring.
The old hamlet of alpine chalets was equipped with a ski lift, the La Poletta drag lift, on December 23, 1960.
The resort has been linked in winter, since 1984, with the Valdostan commune of La Thuile to form the international ski area of Ascendancy of Espace San Bernardo.
The resort is linked by ski lifts to the Italian and Valdostan commune of La Thuile, via the Petit-Saint-Bernard Pass, by the Chardonnet chairlift and the Bellecombe drag lift on the French side, and the Belvédère chairlift on the Valdostan side.
This link opens up a common ski area for skiers -the Espace San Bernardo- of 3,000 hectares.
The latest extension of the area dates from December 2018, with the opening of 2 new ski lifts, allowing access to the maximum altitude of 2,800 m on Mont Valaisan.
The La Rosière area is managed under a public service delegation by DSR, of which Sofival holds 80% and Compagnie des Alpes 20%.
The Espace San Bernardo has 154 km of alpine ski slopes, excluding cross-country ski trails, sledding areas, and permanent ski touring routes.

It's hard to give tips to skiers if I don't know how they ski,
but I think the most important thing in skiing is
you have to be having fun. If you're having fun,
then everything else will come easy to you.
