In reply to Tony the Blade:
I'd say Montenvers is your best bet. The Midi would be OK if the ropes were still on the arete, but without them it'd be a serious proposition for you with a bunch of people who've never been on snow before. On the other hand you could go through to Italy and go up to Hebronner and walk about to your heart's content with fabulous views - have to check if the lift is working, though.
I'd say the Brenva would be death on a stick.
