Zinal is already connected to Grimentz by piste in 1 direction. It's a black run mind you, through stunning scenery :D

I do agree about the advantages of having your own transport if you want to visit St Luc/Chandolin and Vercorin, and there is a good ski bus between Grimentz and Zinal.

People seem to want it on a plate these days, sometimes its worth the effort of travelling

To me it seems to be the effect of the French Mega resorts, with ski in-out accom and giant corporations running several resorts with the same blandness.
