We are going to a cottage in Menthon St Bernard on the east side of Lake Annecy on April 5th but would like to head into the mountains to see snow(if it is still there then!!). Does anyone think snow chains would be necessary at that time of year? Also we dont want to ski but would enjoy sledging / husky dog rides . La Clusaz isnt far from us, as is Manigod. Info please, if anyone knows anything I would be grateful.
