On the slopes, safety is no joke!<\/h2>\n <\/div>\n
How to significantly improve safety on the slopes<\/div>\n
\n

Safety on alpine ski slopes is ensured in every Grand Massif resort(Flaine<\/a>, Morillon<\/a>, Samo\u00ebns<\/a> and Sixt<\/a>) by the GMDS piste service, made up of specially trained and qualified personnel: first-aid attendants<\/a>, grooming machine operators<\/a>, snow and weather observers, avalanche dog handlers and piste control centre operators.<\/span><\/p>\n

But safety is everyone’s business!<\/span><\/h4>\n

To ensure that your stay goes smoothly and without a hitch, we’ve reworked our 10 rules of the road. <\/span><\/h4>\n

We invite you to apply these rules and spread the word!<\/span><\/h4>\n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n
