🎿 CarveCast Episode 26

Three weeks. Multiple countries. Endless skiing.

In this episode, I’m back from an epic three week early season ski adventure across Chamonix, Saas Fee, Zermatt, Cervinia, Val d’Isère and Tignes.

I skied from first lift to last lift, every single day, sharing what early season skiing is really like across the Alps when the snow hits early and the crowds are still missing.

What we cover in this episode:

❄️ Early season snow conditions and what was genuinely worth skiing

🗓️ How to time late November and early December trips properly

💰 How to save serious money on accommodation, food and lift passes

🏔️ Zermatt vs Cervinia and why Italy is such insane value

🎿 Stomp It Camp review and what you actually gain from coaching

🧤 Gear reviews including heated gloves, base layers, Pullin underwear and Stockli kit

👓 Prescription lenses for Oakley Meta glasses

🚐 Early season travel tips, driving vs flying and lift pass planning

This episode is packed with real world advice, not brochure hype. If you’re thinking about early season skiing, glacier resorts, coaching camps, or squeezing maximum value from Alpine trips, this one’s for you.

🎿 One chalet. A different ski resort every day. Could this be the ultimate way to ski the French Alps?

In Episode 35 of The CarveCast, I’m joined by Jules Heaton, the ski enthusiast behind Chalet Wonderland, to explore why the Tarentaise Valley makes such an exciting base for a ski safari.

Jules and her husband set out to build a chalet that would give them access to the skiing they love, with space to bring friends and family together. A pandemic, delayed windows and an over-budget build later, Wonderland became a reality.

We talk Val d’Isère, Tignes, Les Arcs, La Plagne, Sainte-Foy and La Rosière — plus skiing across the border to La Thuile in Italy for lunch. From huge linked ski areas to quieter tree-lined slopes, there’s an incredible amount of variety within reach of one base.

⛷️ In this episode:
🏔️ Why the Tarentaise is one of my favourite ski regions
🏡 The story behind building Chalet Wonderland
🇮🇹 Skiing from France to Italy for lunch
🌨️ Choosing a resort to suit the weather and your group
🎟️ Ski à la Carte and flexible lift passes
🍝 Mountain restaurants and eating well on a ski holiday
🧘 Women’s ski and Pilates retreats and catered ski safaris
☀️ Why the Alps are worth visiting in summer

We also look ahead to my December visit, when I’m hoping to explore as much of the area as possible. If you love the idea of getting more variety out of your next ski trip, this conversation will get you counting down to winter.
