Someone here must know Chamonix well. A couple of friends are starting to put together a ski trip for this winter, so I'm looking for things like--where to stay that's close to lifts & apres, what sort of weather to expect, is it better to bring girls or find them there?
Much obliged-

By the way, I've no idea. I've been to Morzine-Avoriaz and Les Arcs (1800), which are both relatively close to Chamonix, and they have a different vibe altogether. (1st seems very family oriented. Second more of a party place.) But I've aged 10 years since Les Arcs, so perhaps my perspective has changed.
For reference we're all 30ish professionals, hopefully with a mixed group of 10 or so. I've found a few listings to where we can get a catered chalet for a week, but after other ski trips in the Alps where I've stayed a "short warm-up walk" from a lift or from the town I'm nervous about unknowingly setting up on the far edge of the village.
