Search or post your question at the snowheads forum. It's been asked and answered a few times as there are a few there with some prior experience.

The book I use is :
Orrizonti Bianchi Valle d'Aoste Pellissier Martini 2004
It is in Italian, but has good maps so easy to extract the necessary information.
Also have a look at:
http://www.alpine-club.org.uk/funalps/wp-content/uploads/2014/05/Ski-Hikes....
for some recommendations and links to English descriptions on the camptocamp site.

Have a look at the guide 'Polvere Rosa'

Basing oneself in the Gressoney Valley has worked well for me on a couple of occasions.
Get weavin'!
