I've watched a couple of ski documentaries and read a couple of stories about skiing in Chamonix Aiguille du Midi, Mont Blanc, etc,.

The new section is not skiable as there is too little natural snow. Yes I have ridden the gondola. It's very nice and smooth. Good place to warm up a bit on a cold day! So far we have only 37 runs open out of 52.

10-15 cm coming this week. That will help but we need more!

But, she grew up skiing freeride terrain at Red, Whitewater and the surround back country.  Okay, now Im just making excuses as to why she was so damned better than me...

A few years back about a dozen of us from work all went to Tremblant (we actually had some nice fresh snow).  Anyhow, with us was a buddy of mine  who grew up skiing Red Mountain, but hadn't been on skis in 10 years.  By his second run he was blowing away everyone else, amazing.

Sunny day + new snow over the weekend + nothing going on at work = had to go to Sunshine this afternoon!  ;D

And here's a snap of that view I mentioned earlier:
