Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

314: Chamonix Stories #1 | Zag Skis
Q: Could you tell us about the origins of the Zag brand and how it started?
The brand began with Stéphane Zag-Rendiguet, who started with the idea of translating the feel of snowboarding to skis; Zag emerged from his Kyle as a snowboarder and then a skier innovator, leading to the creation of Zag skis after initial attempts by Nidecker didn't move forward.
313: Chamonix Mont-Blanc | More Than a Ski Resort
Q: What role does the Compagnie des Guides play in Chamonix today?
It remains a central, multi-year process to join; once admitted, guides are allocated work via a historically fair 'Bolton board' system, and the organization continues to be the oldest and largest guiding company in the world, shaping local tourism and safety standards.
313: Chamonix Mont-Blanc | More Than a Ski Resort
Q: What changes has climate change brought to the Mer de Glace and the Vallee Blanche?
Glaciers are thinning and dynamically changing year to year, with significant shifts in snow cover and serac movement; these changes impact climbing and guiding, necessitating adaptation in safety practices and access routes.
313: Chamonix Mont-Blanc | More Than a Ski Resort
Q: How does one become a mountain guide in France, and what does the process look like?
The path starts with building a comprehensive resume across multiple alpine disciplines, followed by mandatory route requirements, an interview, and intense exams; the training is subsidized by the government and takes about three and a half years, culminating in UIATM/IFMGA certification allowing guiding in summer and winter.
311: Heliskiing in Albania, Champoluc & Chamonix’s Closing Day
Q: What drew you to Champoluc and the Monterosa Ski Area for a family trip?
Katie explains the appeal as authentic Italian hospitality, strong value, and a mix of intermediate-friendly terrain with occasional advanced reds, plus scenic lift access from the Champoluc base.
