2 of my Speedrides in Chamonix area last week. Both of these were accessed from Le Tour Resort. Still new to the sport and was on a larger wing - Firefly 16m, so was more speed flying than riding.
First flight is accessed of the Les Autannes lift and and staying skiers left on a ridge till you are parallel with the Charamillon Lift. You can also traverse over from Charamillon but will end up lower on hill. Wind was SW at about 15-20 mph. Land between Charamillon and Vormaine lifts.
Second flight is taking the Aiguillette lift up, then hiking up the peak 5 mins, then flying N, NW towards Vallorcine. Winds were N at 20-25mph. Take the Vallorcine lift back up.
