Thanks for the input,

Only got experience of the Tignes glacier in summer, but I was
pleasantly surprised - quite a few KM of piste, big snow-park, crowded
first thing, but gradually eases as people spread out a bit. Snow
quality wasn't great, but it was like it is in April - ice in the
morning, slush towards lunch. I'd do it again, especially as you can
use the lift pass in the afternoon for mountain bikes or hiking.

Cheers
